On a completely random note, please watch this informative video about the dangers of something I hear a lot about on here.


Hey, it's as relevant as some of the sh*t we go on about!

skinny is freeride

no need to shout anything

just tweak your waxed hipster freeride moustache as you ride along

nobody will be near you if you are riding teh skinny on a dead rotten trail

There were three guys sitting on the 3 curve wall ride at the start of LTG trying to get a rad selfie of their brodown experience. Not sure if they actually rode the trail, I just scattered them like pigeons and kept riding...

Not really a problem any more for this group.... based our age/sex demographic, we should be more worried about prostate cancer and heart disease.

Now that the action cams are gone, its even harder to get a super rad shot of your self, all decked out in a visor-less lid upon your rental bike.

I hope you yelled STRAVA! atthe top of your lungs as you crept past.

Wise choice.
Pedal up or shuttle up. Whatever works for you. Swan Lake foods are the sponsor. Member or non-member does not really matter to me personally but it is a NOCS ride. My thoughts, all are welcome over on the darkside of the valley. Lets see if we can get all the people who talk too much on here out for ride.
I have a NSR-4 and room for three in the SUV on the way up.

You can thank XB for the whole "slap in the face speech" he delivered to NOCS brass...

X-650-B riding up of course... If you gotta shuttle up Nobles your a p#ssy! Str8 up. It's a easy 45 min Climb, breezy, spinny, entry level climb. Man up, pedal up.

You can pedal up and ride down once. I'll shuttle up and do 3-4 laps. Whatever works for the people.

XB will still ride more in a night, XB 2 laps, 2.75 hours... You sit in truck most of the night 20 minutes riding... XB chooses riding on ride night, not sitting in a truck.

Didn't yell strava, was worried they would want to compare times from their last ride and I'da had to release my antisocial rage...

Have actually heard a lot of people complaining about the cameras not being there this year. Was a cool thing to have, but I'm not sure how many people skipped a bag of Cheetos to actually buy a pic or two.

2.75 hrs is including stops for bong tokes and OK Springs beer chuggs. XB can crush two laps of SOS/ Bac in 2 hours, easy.

Ditto, float your boat bro.

I think they could have picked better camera placements... and as much as do (truly) miss checking out my steeze on the Rockstar 3 pack and that lame superstar berm.... there was no way I was shelling out cash... Then again, its not really about you or me ... it about the family driving in from High River, staying at the bulldog, renting bikes and running in the foam fest.
