He got busy and it became overgrown and people stopped using it. About three years ago my kids wanted to ride with me but there was nowhere suitable at Brushy. I remembered there was trail over there and cleared a little out so my kids could ride it. I called it Carcass Cafe. I later found out AJ was the one that originally built in that area so I changed the name to Peddlers Pass in homage to the OG builder with a play off the name of his bike shop, The Peddler. Ah, that makes sense - especially since the shop used to be right near there... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AustinBike Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 Sarge has it right. I remember in college listening to a song and thinking "this is an awesome album." 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rugger Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 I suppose that is one method to help make Peddlers Pass ~enjoyable. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AustinBike Posted August 14, 2019 Share Posted August 14, 2019 Actually, when I skied I never bothered with snowboards. Basically I only had short trips, 3-4 days on the slope. To get good I would probably need to spend a week with lessons and then getting the hang of the thing. That would be 2 years of wasted vacations. A single speed, on the other hand, is much easier to learn. And it will make you a better overall rider. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Txduc Posted August 14, 2019 Share Posted August 14, 2019 Same thing here. Skied for years and years to get to where I'm at skill level wise. Tried snowboarding and when I realized it was going to take a long time before I could ride the stuff I could ski easily that was the end of that.

notyal Posted August 14, 2019 Share Posted August 14, 2019 Listening to some of those Canadian skiers sounded a lot like the current e-bike discussion. "I don't understand them and don't want to share." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RidingAgain Posted August 15, 2019 Share Posted August 15, 2019 Someone said they spoke with an animal control officer at the park and was told that off-leash was fine on trails other than concrete. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreenMTBrider Posted August 15, 2019 Share Posted August 15, 2019 Interesting! That is not explicitly stated on any of the kiosks. I’ll poke some contacts and see what they say. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can definitely relate to this fear! I love dogs but I was bit by one when I was younger and had to get some stitches. That fear sticks with me. On Picnic, I keep running into a fella walking with a big German Shepard off leash. So far he seems friendly though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chongo Loco Posted August 15, 2019 Share Posted August 15, 2019 Had some goofy ass bitch at walnut tell me her dog wasn’t aggressive AFTER the little bastard bit my shoe as I was riding up the concrete path. She scooped it up and hauled ass as I screamed a few impossible sexual positions at her. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hear stuff like this all the time. The person with the off-leash dog always has a "reason". Allowed off the concrete. Allowed on Tuesdays. Allowed when its raining. Allowed when followed by a lady wearing a red sweater... I call BS on all such excuses. Of course calling BS does not change what they are doing but it does piss them off. And me causing a stink does not help either. I think we are better off to just say nice things and move along. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
