Not to mention the gold coin that you can collect.

Any trail reports?

A buddy just forwarded me an email from the Austin and Central Texas Cycling group that says that 2 riders died of heart attack during last Friday's Fredericksburg ride. Given that most of the guys I ride with are over 50, that news really hits home. So I'm wondering, how many of y'all are CPR certified? Would CPR make a difference if someone is having a heart attack on the trail? Short of carrying a portable defib in my CamelBak, what are the best precautions to take?

Shit just got real!

I saw that Poison Spider Cyclery in Moab posted on FB that they had a smash and grab last night. One of the comments mentioned that an SB150 was stolen and successfully recovered ... in Austin! Must've been one of y'all 🙂

Poor guy, now the whole mtn biking community (or at least all the ones that matter) know where he stashes his keys.

I always approach this one cautiously - meaning I send a buddy in front 🙂 Seriously, I've been concerned about this section for awhile. With 4 entrances to this tiny section, several paths through it, and poor visibility in all cases, it's looking for trouble. I came through there in what is probably the most predictable path and there was a guy standing in the middle with an off-leash little 5 pound guinea pig sized dog. I nearly wiped them both out. I don't have suggestions, only another vote that it's a concern. And if someone has a solution, I'll work a shovel.

That might be needed for the Tandem race!

I bet one of them was Joe. Dammit, Joe!

That would be the purse that's all the way up to $10 ?

Probably involves a dude canoe

Are you going back up the wooden feature or is there a connector from the creek back up that I'm not aware of?

Although, until the workmen are done pouring and repouring, Peddler's is actually 3 separate loops. So do the loop in the corner of the lake park, then pop out to the cement towards Parmer. Head north right before the the Parmer overpass and you'll see the second loop on your right. When you come out of there go straight across under Parmer overpass and you'll find the 3rd loop. You know, unless everything has changed again.

Without barriers, they may still be re-pouring it in June.

Damn, I assumed the rain on Tuesday had left everything a mess. Now I can't get back out until Sat and it's supposed to rain again.
