    canyons run 11/18

    Would like to do a good canyon run on Sun. I've done all these at one time but have yet to connect them all. Lots of turns low mileage run (under 200 miles). I will describe the route on Sun. morning, 9:30 meeting, Moco,10am ride time. Many have done some of these canyons but few will have done all, and the trick will be connecting them in a good way which I have worked on a little. There will be a lot of turns in a short time, experience is a good thing for this run. Maybe that freak Pilot will show up because it will be a good technical ride and lots to be learned . So post if you want or just show up.

    i like the disclaimer....and i think pilot is still in california
    mayo....

    Fear is the mind-killer.
    Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
    I will face my fear.
    I will permit it to pass over me and through me.
    And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
    Where the fear has gone there will be nothing.

    Hey guys..A new guy here. I just moved in from OK a few months ago and have touched a puck on some of the canyons but I like the idea of linking them together. Count me in if you dont mind a new face.

    I'm going to tell Pilot what you said. Don't be mad that he is well versed in technique, and that he has a damn fine shiny head.

    I'll be there...although I'm not sure all of those things listed on your disclaimer are as unforeseeable as you claim...except the pregnancy one.

    Count me in for some connect the dots!

    I only got in 3 whole laps at todays track benefit before a hand grenade went off in my crankcase and my wrist is still locked in the WOT position...

    Frenchy will be out as well, which should make for some interesting times...

    And oh yeah - this time - YOU LEAD!

    That's a connecting rod. That is some serious failure going on there.

    Nice meeting everyone today. Great day for a ride. Looking forward to the next one with the exception of the extended pit stop of course.
