So yeah, Bought it outta state (WV) so it became a moot point.

No problem Kevin, it's good to hear it got a new lease on life. I'll let you know when my schedule settles down so I can get some mid-week riding in, probably in August.

I need to get out and hit the trails more than the once a month that I can "claim" a weekend with the R&T group.
My wife works in the hospital and has unusual and varied shifts. I am self employed and only "need" to work 2 days a week for a few hours in addition to my child care duties.

I just bought a brand new '18 KTM 150 XC-W and am dying to get some hours on it. So if you are the type of person who sometimes has weekdays, or mid-days, or does shift work....
PLEASE hit me up. I'd love to make some riding happen outside of the usual weekend rides & trips, and have the trail to ourselves...

No love for the Freeride? It's a 250 2t right at 200 lbs.

Not correct...

I looked really hard at the Freeride and it is very attractive. Also it seemed there were more of them left over and available---at really good prices.

But at the end of the day I kind of know that I would not need the "genre-bending" features of the Free. I am never gonna do anything even close to trialsin' Just felt like a standard XC bike was gonna make me most happy. Perhaps when we go ride we can do a bike trade for a minute...

Wednesday could be a chance for me to put wheels on dirt...

I'd love to trade bikes for a test ride. My days off are Tuesdays and Fridays- when I don't have Grandson babysitting duty.

Sounds real good...I'll get in touch with some dates T/F dates maybe we can make work!

Can we set up a ride for next week? Wed/Thursday are the best days for me, maybe even Tuesday if we have to.

I'd kinda like to do the RAC again if we have passes for everyone. Or maybe Cove or something

How does RAC compare to, say, Tasker's?

I saw nothing but rocks and boulders with the occasional tree root at RAC- but I think they were trying to kill me Although I hear RAC has some "nicer" trails.
I've never been to Taskers.
