Plenty of granite awaits this Sunday as I prepare to embark on the BIG NUT. MassaNUTten mountain that is. Harrisonburg Va to almost Front Royal Va. Its gonna be another amazing ALL DAY adventure on the bike. Only done this one once before and it took it OUT of me. But that was a few years ago when I wasn’t quite as proficent on the rocks. ONLY 65 miles and 9000 feet of climbing BUT SLOOOWW ridge riding boogey. With GNAR and ROCKS! Rock Crawlin’ goodness. Its gonna be a trip. Check out The Massanutten range from OUTER SPACE. and some of the Ridge ridin’ that awaits. It’s gonna be an amazin’ day in the mountains. Try not to be too jealous.
And how about this economic bailout? hey the free market is workin right? No corporate big wigs want government involvement until they F-up. otherwise it might impeed upon their quest for riches. So free market sorts everything out and those companies that make unsound decisions must pay the consequences. Think of it as Social Darwinism for Corporations, you mess up and you fail…Cynicism is the word of the week
Nice. I love to go bust a NUT over on those two special ridges. If you don’t mind me asking what route did you take for this ride? I’ve often thought about a two day adventure to ride the entire Massanutten N.R.T. trail South to North on the East Ridge w/a one night stop and camping at Elizabeth to head back North to South on the West Ridge the next day. What do you think is that feasible?

P.S. The Blowfish and the not so mini pump that you recommended last time I was in the shop are hands down 2 of the best purchases I’ve made in 2008. Thanks again.
