One Crazy Ride:

Riders: Way to many for me to name them all (+15)

The main group climbed Farside while Tator and I climbed middle. Then we took
Bench and went down the steep trail just before Rattlesnake. Next we climbed
the hill at the start of bench and made a right turn at the top. That trail
took us to the top of Rattlesnake. Next we dropped into the top portion of
Farside and climb that to the Lookout where we re-joined the rest of the
Group. I took off before the group to get some extra credit in. I took Flood
Control to the Rabbit trail to the Pepper Tree. Then I went down and up
Rattlesnake. Then I took Middle back to the Lookout. Then I took Flood
Control. At the end of Flood Control I found a few people from our group
helping Kevin who got a flat. Also there was PK and John. John was a RBC
roadie I use to ride with. We chated until the flat was repaired and we rode
Rabbit to the Pepper Tree and re-grouped with the rest of the riders. Form
there we took Mac Twist to Double Dip. At the end of Double Dip I turned
around and took the fireroad back to the top of the Nettles while the rest of
the group continued down Lumbar’s to the bottom of Moab. I when down the
Nettles and took that trail and Re-grouped again with the group at the bottom
of Moab. Then the Group went North Arroyo while I went South Arroyo. We
regrouped at the parking lot than headed to the top of Moab. I took the
Farmer Boy loop while most of the group took the bypass. Next we took X trail
to upper Dookies. I talked Tator in to make a right at lower Dookies and take
the crossover trail to Twister. We rode up Twister turned left on the X trail
and rode to Upper Dookies were we rejoined the group. The we rode lower
Dookies to South Arroyo to Jellybean back to X trail to the top of Moab. I
split from the group and rode the Farmer Boy loop backwards and rejoined the
group at the top of Moab. Not wanting to stop I continued down Moab. Instead
of doing the trail with the rock face (after Oh Shit) I to the upper trail.
Then I turned back to ride the rock face trail too. Since I did not see the
group I decided to ride back up Moab to see what happened. It was a great
excuses to ride up Oh Shit (I love doing that). Just as I was getting back to
them they started to roll. I don’t know what happened. But I turned around
and rode back down Moab with them. At the bottom we decide to take Fenceline
back. Most did while a few took another way. It was getting dark and
everyone continued on not stopping at the Pepper Tree, so I did too. I rode
up the Rabbit trail and Flood Control to the Lookout. Next I rode down
Farside and took the Luge back to the parking lot. Everyone seamed to go a
different way down. It was almost dark when we finished. I’m not sure if the
group talked a lot or if we are loosing daylight, but it was fairly dark. What
a great night to ride. Perfect riding temps. I ended the ride with 18 miles
with a 10.5 avg, and 2,080 ft of climbing. DTM

I tried to stick to Dan but did not have the legs for it. I split off with Oz
at the end. I got almost 15 miles in that night with a couple extra loops I did
since I could not keep Dans pace. Good ride fo sho.
