What you are actually hearing is the bike whining it needs to be cleaned as it got a little muddy last week and i haven't cleaned it yet.

I was out last Wednesday as well, what a sloppy mess lower Mill Creek was. Where you run along the river between the Mutart and the golf course heading east was also a mud fest.

Darn it all... I won't be able to get out for the next few days. My back-cracker (chiro) advised me not for a few days.
Just when the nice weather hits too...

He's either a quack or he's a biker himself trying to get the trails all to himself.

Bummer man, but, yeah, guess don't mess with the back. Good luck, surely you'll be back at it in a week or so.

Sorry to hear Ryan! Hope you get back on track soon too!
Might I ask where you ride in town? I know of some areas in the west end just east of callingwood... and a couple other crappy areas in the river valley, but thats about it.

So I've logged about 6x 14km rides so far and 2x 8km rides (did one 14 and one 8 today). Its getting much easier to push harder each time. Going to start making them longer soon. Need to let me muscles get back into biking condition first though!

So Tony was bragging about his day spent on Moose Mountain on Facebook the other day I was extremely hurt to have not received my invitation to ride with him. Must have gotten lost in the mail for it never arrived. I know I didn't miss the mailman, I waited on the front step all day.

I know a lot of us ride I think it would be pretty cool to get together at Moose Mountain one weekend next year. If anyone is interested from Edmonton I have room for four guys and four bikes and the gear. (I knew there had to be a good reason for me buying a station wagon!)

I'm asking now to give everyone A LOT of notice....

A video Tony posted from Moose, looks like most of the obstacles have ride arounds for those not interested in hurting themselves!

I'll post this in the other thread too.
