Planning on leaving SLC around 8:30 ish. |

I live in West Jordan and will leave from there at around 8:30 ish.
That will put me at the trail at around 9:15 ish.
If you live in the West Jordan vacinity, maybe we can meet somewhere and car pool. |

I live on Foothill Dr so my drive over there is like 15 min.
Are you going to keep this pretty recreational? _________________ Big Pig Racing: Commit to the Ride. |

I'm just going to stretch out my legs and probably get my last MTB ride of the year.
I'm about mid level rider and can ussually do the loop in 1:50, however I just got over a cold and haven't been on the bike for over a week.
I'm definately not out to drop the hammer, which BTW i don't have.
Just about anyone is stronger then me on a MTB.
Let me know, maybe we can meet at the crossover parking. |

| Haven't done this ride before, but checked it out on the trail guide and it sounds like a winner. I live down by Liberty Park and would be interested in car pooling with anyone else departing from this part of the valley - thanks for the post. |

It's definitely a winner, fantastic trail and I think just about anyone can ride it.
I'm in. Anyone else? Mooddude? Bikepeddler? Hollywood? GW? _________________ Big Pig Racing: Commit to the Ride. |

looking at the week weather report it appears that is going to snow on Sun.
Might have to change the ride to Sat, I would hate to waist such a nice day and not put in my possible last ride of the year.
Any thoughts??.... |

We have cross races on Saturday. On Saturday night I normally go out drinking because, unlike bikepeddler, I have friends and no kids. So Sunday is a nice 2 hour ride kinda day for me. _________________ Big Pig Racing: Commit to the Ride. |

65 degrees and sunny on Sat
44 degrees with a chance for snow on Sun
I personally would have prefered Sun, but I think the weather is not going to be forgiving.
We'll play it by ear and see if it changes. |

So the ride just got 34.6% cooler now that Cobes isn't riding
I was planning on riding corner canyon on Saturday AM since I have only riden there once this year, and have riden Flying Dog plenty this year.
And Sunday I already have plans, since unlike Cobes I actually have friends that like to be around me without drinking  |

I'm back to Sunday riding if anyone is interested.
Now that the weather appears to be OK!
I also have to work Sat, which leaves me no other option. |

I would recognize if you maybe added some BACON.
Good luck in finding some snow. |

Solitude opened today. Funny you did not know that since you live there.
What kind of bacon are we talking about? Pepper, thick sliced, smoked, turkey? |
