Last Sunday was the start of the Syncline exploration beginning at the far west end. This Saturday the ride will once again begin at the far west end though will incorporate even more trails, more climbing and more exploration. The goal will be "no trail left behind". There is no planned route. It will be like last Sunday, if it goes up we take it and then we head East and go up some more and keep on exploring. What this means is a fun and fast descent at the end.
Okay, so really nothing will be sinful about this day or ride. It should be a delightful time with great folks. Come on out and ride with us. Meet up with friends from last year's riding season that have been in hibernation and meet new friends too! The time to ride is now!
A fun day riding at Syncline. And to think, I've never been to Syncline before - that is likely the true sin here! But, there is going to be some fine folks on hand that have knowledge of the trails. Judging by Jordan's forum post, the conditions are primo right now.

Gonna get a few miles in after work this evening. Hoping to do HH/Skeet section after dark. Should be fun. Lights would be absolutely needed after about 8PM. Will be at the blue gate between 6 & 6:30, depending on traffic, etc...

Even though this event does not specifically pertain to mountain biking, it should be of interest because many of us use the streets and roads for recreational and/or commuting on. Safety is of utmost concern. David Anderson
