August 9 Mountain ride- You Decide

07-26-2008, 03:34 AM

Lets try this again. Lets plan a ride in the mountains for August 9th. The catch is you decide the route for the day.

On August 3, we stop taking suggestions and those interested in riding will pick the one that seems the best, and that is the one to be ridden.

Ride Decide is now open for entries.

Hope we have better luck then picking a name.

Chimney Rock/Lake Lure is always a nice ride. Went up to Mt Mitchell a few weeks ago,rreally nice ride on the parkway.

kawgirl · 07-26-2008, 09:23 PM

Pisgah Forest area isn't a bad ride either.

I sure hope this goes better than the name picking too!

well, 2 of us today went to Mount Mitchell. 54 degrees at 12. Then down 226.

kawiman · 07-28-2008, 05:31 PM

54 degrees???

Guess you can tell I dont get around much

Looking to change that!

Maybe I should phrase this a different way. Does anyone care to ride on the 9th. lol

Hey trjam!

I would love to ride the mountains with you and anyone else from that area. It's too far for me to do it in a day ride though. I'm trying to figure out a way.

08-02-2008, 07:41 PM

let me know. If you came up 85 in towards Spartenburg or into Kings Mountain NC we could go from there.

Aaron, you, BigDave and Todd busy this weekend?

kawgirl · 08-02-2008, 09:41 PM

I'm trying to play things out around here and see if I have a doggie sitter. I hope to know in the next few days if I can swing it or not.

bigdave · 08-02-2008, 09:50 PM

right now i dont have any plans so should be available

Todd · 08-03-2008, 07:55 AM

I'm a definite maybe...will have to see what the kids have going on the weekend....all the fall sports practices are starting up with some Saturdays spread in there

08-03-2008, 08:35 AM

just let me know, we can plan this later in the week and yeah I know about those sport Saturdays in the fall with kids.

what about a ride in the Pisgah Forest. That would work easier for you Bob.

Hey....Please let me know what ride ya'll decide on.

If its not too far from Blairsville, like W NC, I would like to join in.

I say Pisgah. So is Asheville or Brevard a better meeting place. I realize some may meet sooner but as a whole, because I am not real familiar with this area. But I think it would be a great place to ride. dkdixie and BigDave, give your thoughts on the best way to start this one.
