Stone has the dirt jumps and the hobo cave drop. I don't know about much on the Scoville side for drops, other than the big one at the start of the Scoville twisties.

I did that side my first time on a mtn bike with Greg and some of these guys. The hobo cave drop was fun but the massive uphill riding nearly killed me. :smile:

Not sure, seems to be stopping now and the sky looks sunny north of here, but the radar shows some that can come out way

We got in a grueling 2.58 miles before it starting raining and thundering(probably should of taken the National weathers warnings of tornado's on the radio and bailed). 2knees hit all the jumps and Steveo took a hard fall.

I will probably try and get a ride in tomorrow sometimes.

Nice riding with you guys...Shoulder and hand are kinda sore but nothing serious....Hit the first 2 a-frames ok and was expecting the third (to be an a-frame also) Wrong!! Front tire hit first and I went OTB and shoulder checked something hard.... Jeff led the way at a pretty decent pace...and Pat was hitting all the hits with ease...Had to shift with my left hand on the ride home...Rehabbing now with some tasty brews!

Steveo
