Okay, Sweeties, who wants to come out here and ride with the Old Bat?

Hello?

Anybody?

(sound of chirping crickets)

Yeah, I thought as much.

Tim and Al, no doubt there are some beautiful trails I love to ride around the area (being Maryland/Delaware/New Jersey, not North Carolina…the appalachian/smokey mountains start to offer a little more challenge), but I just feel like for someone with Utah’s trails, this would be snore city… have you seen the videos of Fatty and gang doing rock hopping and careening near the edge of a 5,000 foot drop? I’m not sure how the 500 foot ascent in Patapsco can compare ;).

Ive used the warm showers list to get local knowledge when touring from area to area (www.warmshowers.org). Depending on the hosts effort level either just to gain information or sometimes organise a ride. Always works out great, my best travel experiences for sure. Great thinking fatty hope it works out, its always great to be a tourist in your own backyard as well!

Well, the ultimate mountain biking vacation already has a start in Arizona – just a little south of you folks, and it’s next weekend – check it out here, and plan for next year. Oh yeah, there are many cliques of 7, sometimes multiples on the same ride, sometimes fractions of 7 on the same ride

today i find out that the bloggies are handed out in austin. not sure if fatty is attending and in town, but this could have been a fine trial run of the concept.
Around here we have to offer:
Hill country road biking – head west from Austin past suburbia and you will find perfect quiet county roads with lots of ups and downs – lots of vertical feet in many small helpings – plus the wildflowers are just starting.
Hill country mountain biking – very technical, lots of ups and downs, either in the limited public areas, pay-to-ride ranches, or illegally on private property.
Or go east where both the road and mountain biking is mellower.
And then we have the Lance Armstrong/US Postal sites: the pothole that did in Ekimov, the place where Lance and Kevin L. got attacked by a guy in a pickup, Lances favorite restaurant (which is also the place Jenna Bush got busted for underage drinking).
Then again I don’t know if I meet the personality profile – that and I have to work…
So Fatty, if you are in town, rent a bike from Bicycle Sports Shop at Lamar and Barton Springs, put it in your rental car and drive to the Emma Long Motorcycle Trail (there are never any Motorcycles there)…actually no, it is raining, so just go to Chuy’s for TexMex and a few beers.

If you really get a Mid Atlantic clique going, I live 5 miles from Douthat State Park, the best mtn biking in Va, 8 miles from the allegheny trail, 20 from the greenbriar trail and a mere 7 miles from a Cat 1, heart exploding climb of the now defunct Tour DuPont. I have never gone on a road ride in which I don’t hit at least 35 mph at least once, including my ride to and from work. A stage of the Tour of Virginia ends here April 25th in fact. I think my vacation would be the climbing vacation for the east coasters :)
