MTB Camp & Ride - Knoxville Urban Wilderness and Windrock

Come on, it's fun on the lake.

 

Saturday works!
Guess I'll go ahead and order some more brake pads.

 

I need to know what you guys have interest in and what you have zero interest in.

I’ll be hitting at least these areas at some point

Baker Creek - Jump Lines, priority on devils racetrack, barn burner, Cruze valley, and the pump track.

year round get down - giddy up/plan B, party in the woods

Knoxville urban wilderness - need to get recommendations from Alex but would probably be a out and back from campground type ride to hit as much as possible. See Trailforks for AC/DC, lost chromosome, transform, and the section of black diamonds with yellow jacket and sink hole.

 

Id work with @honda50r to come up with a plan. Two many cooks spoil the soup as they say. That said, I vote less XC and more Gnar.

 

Yeah that’s the areas I KNOW I want to hit. I’m all for the gnar. Just don’t know anything besides YouTube so that’s where Alex comes in. But if there’s any area you guys just don’t care to hit, I can plan to do so on Thursday when y’all aren’t there. But might just session baker creek all day Thursday with @tweakit88

everybody bring some local beer for Alex haha.

 

Scotty you are there all day on Thursday? I should be able to join in the evening. You should ride Baker Creek and Year Round for the day. Not very concerned on an agenda at the moment considering two months away but my initial thoughts


Friday

• 10 AM Pedal from Campground via Trans Farm -> AC/DC -> William Hastie ->Year Round Get Down, and finish the day at Baker Creek (25mi, 2500ft day)
  • Later Arrivals can drive over later
• SoKno Taco Lunch
• Evening Beer and Dinner from Sevier Ave
• Shuttle via my truck back to campground

Saturday

• Windrock XC Morning (15mi, 2000ft)
• Windrock DH Evening (25mi, 5000ft via Shuttles)

Sunday

• Sharp's Ridge Knight Fall DH shuttles for those interested

 

Yessir all day Thursday. I think @tweakit88 and I will be coming up Wednesday’s evening actually.

I can also be a shuttle truck, and if you want me to come get you/leave a truck somewhere then back to start from the campground we can do that.

I like that itinerary. I’ll throw it on the OP with a few modifications.

 

Agenda added to 2nd post beneath OP!

 

1) Who is Scotty?

2) I can for sure be there by 10 AM on Friday, Jeff is planning to be there too @jjones.yota

 

this guy gets it.

taking you off the maybe baby list

 

@backcountryj now that you have a sweet new tent you confirmed coming?

 

It’s a step in the right direction

 

Just upgraded my brake rotors to a new compound that is supposed to really help with DH riding, Ill let you guys know how it works out. Also demoing a new low friction fork from Rockshox, but its more rigid style.

 

Any of y’all have any use for a 190x45 cane creek coil shock? I can’t send it back

 

I think @eidsondesign has that size on his bike but he literally just installed a Push 11-6.

Should sell easy on PinkBike

 

It’s posted on there but it’s just a weird small size
