 Labor Day Epic Ride; Monday, Sept. 5th
Who: All Advanced XC Mountain Bikers

What: A truly EPIC loop ride, approx. 40 miles with massive climbing, starting at the Oak Mesa school in La Verne ( Marshall Canyon trailhead ) we'll be taking the streets up to Mount. Baldy (about 15 miles road climbing). From there we'll climb more to Cow Canyon Saddle Trailhead (approx 2 miles) that will take us to Sunset Peak (3 miles of fire road climbing) then some rolling fireroad to the antennas that over look the Inland Empire (3 miles) from there it's 10 miles of pure fireroad downhill (loads of fun since it's not the most well maintained road and you'll wonder when it will end). at the bottom, we'll ride to the bottom of the gated community (steep but fun road descent) to Wheeler Ave. at the point we'll head east to go down the lower third of Marshall Canyon, then back to the Oak Mesa Park/school.

When: Monday, September 5th, 2005 @ 7 AM, we'll be leaving promptly at 7:15 am

Where: We'll meet at the Oak Mesa Park/ School, 5400 Wheeler Ave. in the City of La Verne


*** please bring adequate gear, water and nutrition for this ride , it's not going to be easy.

*** we will be regrouping at certain points, this is a no drop ride, so please be in shape for this hard ride.

        Epic, don't listen to Brahma. He never rides his bike and all he does is hang here and posts nonsense all day. He's an OC tool who wished he knew how to ride.

        If I was into road riding, and fireroad descents, then maybe I would. Since I'm not, I won't.

        Unfortunately, it is not your choice whether I get to make comments, or whether they are viable or not.

        Welcome to the internet!! Yay!!

          It's obvious you're not into riding......at all. In fact, I got 100 bucks says you haven't been on a bike more than 5 times this year.

          sarcastic comments....yay internet!!
