Santa Cruz Rules (Thur May 5)

Great turn out for Thursday night ride. Eight riders braved the weather (it did not rain)and ventured out for a ride down Green Door and Cemetary followed by the Tour de Trail Creek.

Previous to the ride, four of us took advantage of Rocky Mountain Cycles demo van and Revolution Cycles shuttle (Adrenalin Adventures), and test rode different Rocky bikes on a ride down Green Door all the way to Warfield. Nice bikes, but all of us felt that our own bikes felt better. Testing bikes is a difficult thing because there are so many variables. We probably liked our own bikes because they have been set up just for us and adjusted over a longer period of time. Need to ride one of the Rockys for a longer period of time. The Slayer 70 felt real close to the Nomad and could probably be adjusted to feel like a good bike. Big thanks to the Rocky rep and Tyler for putting on the event. Santa Cruz still rules!!!

Post ride we retired to the man cave and had a refreshment and watched the very end of the hockey game. Go Leafs, Oh yeah, they aren,t in the playoffs, I will always have something to look forward to.
