|  Rockville roll-call.....who's coming?????? | Zonic Man Nov 8, 2002 11:49 AM | | Sunday, 9-9:30 in the lower lot.
Look for a blonde norseman in lycra, a guy on an Uzzi DH with his saddle almost as high as pete's and a fat dego on a steel hardtail.
And if FP shows, there will be a skinny guy on a wreckyll w/ a picture of Rebecca Romjin-Stamos taped to his bars.

|  Who is the blonde Norseman? | Biking Viking Nov 8, 2002 12:12 PM | | I look forward to meeting a fellow countryman.
My seat is higher than Pete's.
BV (Tall and dark) |
|  Duh, you're all blonde. | Zonic Man Nov 8, 2002 1:22 PM | | Just like all canadians live in igloos.
And your seat is NOT taller than pete's. He's all legs...if it weren't for the kids i'd think he'd have had one of them operation thingies. |
|  All legs - yup that's pretty much me, too. | Biking Viking Nov 8, 2002 1:29 PM | | Got seat post? |
|  Tire Q... | ciclistagonzo Nov 8, 2002 12:17 PM | | Jed,
How's the Weirwolf in the mud/wet?
I've got a set of 2.4 Motorraptors as "spares" are they better in mud/wet?
Thanks.
-Aaron |
|  Motoraptor 2.4 sucks in the wet. IMHO | Zonic Man Nov 8, 2002 12:42 PM | | weirwolf is good. |
|  Thanks. (nm) | ciclistagonzo Nov 8, 2002 1:44 PM | | nm |
|  you wan't some tires that are good on wet | Jm Nov 8, 2002 3:47 PM | | because I rode there one year with tires that sucked in wet(tioga DHs) and it was hell. I would slip and slide on all the rocks, espeically going uphill. |
|  "Wan't"?? | Finch Platte Nov 9, 2002 7:12 AM | | Th'ats a ne'w o'ne.
fp |
|  no one said I couldn't (nm) | Jm Nov 9, 2002 8:56 PM | | |
|  didn't you just get whacked | JimC. Nov 8, 2002 12:22 PM | | by a major storm down there? where's Rockville in relation to SF? Jim |
|  yup... | grundy Nov 8, 2002 12:33 PM | | rockville is east of SF, maybe 35 miles east? just a guess there.
it holds up well in the wet - one of the few places around where you can ride in the winter and not worry too much about trail damage. |
|  Grassi@$$, grundy | JimC. Nov 8, 2002 12:56 PM | | Jim (geogrpahically challenged)
Mmmmmmmmmmmmmm, wet winter rides. |
|  Geographically challenged AND computer challenged? | Biking Viking Nov 8, 2002 1:42 PM | | http://www.mapquest.com/maps/map.adp?country=US&addtohistory=&address=&city=rockville&state=ca&zipcode=&homesubmit.x=29&homesubmit.y=5
BV |
|  Yeah - I just wanted to show what happened if... | Biking Viking Nov 8, 2002 2:37 PM | | ...you typed in Rockville, CA and did nothing else. I was hoping he'd be able to find the BIG MAP button himself.
BV |
|  Haven't you learned, BV, that | JimC. Nov 8, 2002 3:33 PM | | I tell more people to use Google but forget to use it myself? It's part of being a parent, do as I say, not as I do.
thanks kindly for the corrective action ;P Jim |
|  You're welcome. I'm with you on that parent thing(nm) | Biking Viking Nov 8, 2002 3:40 PM | | |
|  I'm in | fourarm Nov 8, 2002 12:37 PM | | Haven't ridden Rockville in 6 months or so...s/b fun. |
|  Get back on the trail you crazy freeriders! | Kitchenware Nov 8, 2002 3:42 PM | | ;) |
|  I'm in... | andy f Nov 8, 2002 1:20 PM | | Aaron, I can stop by on the way if you want a lift. |
|  Check email...nm | ciclistagonzo Nov 8, 2002 2:30 PM | | nm |
|  re: Rockville roll-call.....who's coming?????? | Obi-John Nov 9, 2002 3:45 AM | | I have wanted to check out Rockville for quite some time now. But I doubt that I can keep up with you guys. Perhaps I'll just show up to say hello. Maybe you can give me a few pointers. I'll have the grey Ellsworth Isis and the little white Honda Civic with big antennas on it.
I'll bring my armor, since a rock garden is lurking there... and with the recent rain, it will be slippery. Are Panaracer Fire XC pros a good tire to use? How about semislicks? Is it muddy?
Obi-John |
|  I'm not going, but... | Finch Platte Nov 9, 2002 4:55 AM | | ...I just said that so Pete wouldn't be afraid to show up.
Panaracers are fine for R-ville. That's what I used until I discovered the wonders of fat,
i fat
tires.
fp |
|  I'm not going either | Obi-John Nov 10, 2002 2:30 AM | | Ugh. Dinner turned into a trip to San Francisco to see some friends. Not enough time to sleep before heading to Rockville. I'll have to go another time. Have fun!
