never been. Been to 27 years and years ago, and as i remember, it is quite a push Ill talk to my riding buddies and ask them about duthie. I havent heard about it till this thread. Been down south a fair amount, did some work on the DJ line at the worm, and have done a good amount of riding at SST, colonade, and about every block in downtown seattle Shoot me a PM when you are feelin better. my work schedule is turning out to be mildly flexible

OOOO....ooooo.......I've been wondering about the jumps @ the worm.I heard that the crew from Gohuckyourself had revived the jumps there......have you been lately. I took yesterday and today off from riding....will go hit some DJ's tomarrow,so my knee is good enough for DJ's, Duthie and even shutteling....just not a long push up. I'll ride both days this weekend....I'm gonna shoot w/Brad Sat. AM then go to the Monroe jumps after....havent been there in years.

exit 27 has been really nice the last few weeks, tokul should be the same [haven't made it up there this year *yet*] and always a fun spot with lots of short lap possibilities... flowtron and last frontier. i was cutting some wood up exit 38 a few weeks back and noticed a line coming down that looked new. i didn't think anyone rode up there much anymore. kind nice to shuttle with the truck....

Been meening to set up a 38 shuttle day for a bit......my wife loves that place. I had heard that some crew had been tuning up the lines at 38 so it was running pretty good. 27 is good times for sure

We should set up a 38 shuttle day in the near future. I'll try and set up a recon mission up there to see exactly where the snow is and go from there. I can think of .5 dozen wheeler/DH guys that would be interested.

Sunday would be the best day so MD69 can go:cheer:

There were 4-5 guys riding there yesterday. Headed above the power lines all the way east [on the main road] to where the washout/McClellan Butte trail is. The trail crosses the road @ 2200ft with zero snow. We hike for one hour up trail, i'd guess we topped out around 3500ft. A few icy patches of snow were covering the rocky open areas, but in the forrested areas the trail was clear ....

Anyone want to shuttle 38 on Sat? Gonna go up and run my wife up and down the hill useing her Subabru wagon and puting the bike in back. If anyone wants to ride and has a truck....I'd be happy to do most of the driving. Let me know and Ill bring my DH bike( so i can ride a little) ,otherwise I'll leave my big bike @ home.

Jeepmauler - Where is that? I just got my Coiler back from Bike Tech today and want to do some riding. I work all weekend (every damn weekend) but can sometimes work something into my schedule afterwards or during the week.

These are way up north of Seattle.....If you live in Oly then there are a bunch of trails closer to you...search them out. I also dirt jump my DH bike and these jumps aren't really full suspension friendly......hard tail for sure.

Bought it, guy handed me a fresh set of new shifters too....I don't think its been riden 2 or 3 times since you sold it. I have 5 rides on it so far, damn thing is a BEAST!

jeepmauler · Mar 5, 2010

So SICK!!!!!!!!!!:011::011::011:

That bike rocks....we gotta hook up!!!

Jeepless · Mar 5, 2010

Hell ya!

Edit: I have a bit to get in shape, crankin this thing around the park will get me there quick.:haha:

jeepmauler · Mar 5, 2010

Don't forget Jackalope that there is no pressure and you could tag along for shuttle seshs and just cruise down @ your own pace.....no need to push it. "Just riding down" takes ALOT less energy than trying to nuke downhill or riding that thing XC style @ St. Eds.

HAha.....Heres a pic of that thing being treated properly.Does it still have Profile BMX cranks on it? If so......you suck:flipoff:
