Chimney Gulch Death Ride
bIKE cLUB riders Furious, Dud, Matty A14, dASH, Allison and guest rider Tim departed Boulder early Sunday morning with the best laid plans to attack Chimney Gulch and get back before the impending thunderstorms. But in true fashion, every good bIKE cLUB plan totally falls apart. Let’s see. 1) Major hydraulic brake failure? Check. 2) Jacked up shifting? Yes. 3) Late start? Confirmed. 4) Shredded Cassette? Check. 5) More brake failures? Roger that. 6) Rain. Check. 7) Sean stacking the descent and almost needing stitches? Affirmative. 8) Taco’d rear wheel? Uh, yeah. 9) Hail? Of course. 10) Tornados? 11) Sunshine and margaritas? No brainer.
Lessons learned? Just get out and ride.

Good work team!
ReplyDeleteI'm pretty sure it was Alford's fault.
ReplyDelete1) Major hydraulic brake failure? Disc Brakes Suck.
ReplyDelete2) Jacked up shifting? Shimano sucks.
3) Late start? We suck.
4) Shredded Cassette? Shimano still sucks
5) More brake failures? Disc Brakes still suck.
6) Rain. Rain makes rocks slick, which sucks.
7) Sean stacking the descent and almost needing stitches? Yeah, that really sucks. Does this look infected?
8) Taco’d rear wheel? $85 for a new rim. That sucks.
9) Hail? More suckage.
10) Tornados? Tornados really suck. Literally.
11) Sunshine and margaritas? Perfect end to a great day. Can't wait to do it again.
