Per request from some BAC members, a beginning mountain biking class/ride is being offered on September 20th (Saturday).
The meeting place will be at parking lot of Arastradero Preserve (circled in RED in map), 1530 Arastradero Rd., Palo Alto @ 8:30am. The parking lot opens at 8am, and it gets filled pretty quickly; therefore, try to arrive by 8:15am and get set up to ride at 8:30am.
One thing, this will be only "B" of "B&H" (Biking of
Bike&Hike). The focus is to ensure that people that are interested
in B&H will have the right skill set for biking. Biking requires 2
things: 1) physical condition, and 2) technical skill. Since everyone's
stamina has greatly improved over the past year, I am not worried about
#1. So we will be focusing on #2.
Arastradero is one of the
beginner friendly trail around the bay area, and yet it offers all the
variety of what a mountain biking offers, ie. singletracks, fireroads,
switchbacks, climbing, downhill and some fun jumping/trick areas if you
desire. Please keep in mind that although it's a good park for beginner mountain bikers, we will be riding off-road trails which require attention and caution.
Please note that in order to join this ride, you will be expected to already know how to ride a bicycle.
Additionally in order to ensure safety and effectiveness of the training, there will be a set maximum number of participants to 10 people unless there are others who can help monitor and assist. If there are more people interested in it than the max limit, then I will offer a second one sometime in October. (Sorry in advance for any inconvenience this might cause to the BAC members).
We will riding the following trails:
Parking Lot -> Gateway Trail -> Wild Rye Trail -> Paseo del Roble Trail -> Juan Bautista de Anza Trail -> Arastradero Creek Trail -> Woodrat Trail -> Meadowlark Trail -> Bowl Loop Trail -> Meadowlark Trail -> Woodland Star Trail -> Bay Laurel Trail -> Ohlone Trail -> Juan Bautista de Anza Trail -> Meadowlark Trail -> Portola Pasture Trail -> Redtail Loop Trail -> Parking Lot

증거자료 입니다. 산행후기에서 본드님 자료 copy 해 옵니다.

Looking good there 아싸님.
We will be talking about it on our ride, but there is one minor correction that I see that you need to make. On a downhill, you want to make sure that both of your feet are parallel to the ground. You will notice that your left foot is down while your right foot is up. This is to make sure that your body is balanced. Only time that your feet is uneven is on fast corners to ensure that you are weighting appropriately...i.e. on fast right turns, you would want your left feet down to keep the wheels of the bike sliding out, and vice versa on fast left turns, right foot is down.

기초부터 차근차근 이히~~~.

역시 인간은 추억을 먹고 사는 동물같습니다. 우리한테 저런때가 있었지요. 참 재밌었는데 저때...

FAB 참석합니다. 플레젠튼에서 가실 분은 제 차에 두어대 공간이 있으니 카풀 가능합니다.
-
?
산동무 참가합니다.

?
길동무님는 안가나요? 바늘가면 실도 가야지요. 길동무님 MTB 녹슬기전에 나와라 오바!
-

길동무는 혼자 서울 가서 북한산 간다내여...흨흨

바이킹 아줌마 하나!
-
Sooji님, I heard that you used to ride pretty seriously. I am sure there is nothing that I can be of help when it comes to your riding, but I would love to have your help either as sweep or lead. Look forward to riding with you shortly.
-
?
자전거님, 그거 false rumor 인데요. Seriously 넘어지기만하고 민폐되어 그만 두었습니다. Sweep 아니더라도 주로 꼴찌로 갑니다. 좀 가르켜 주시와요. 잔차 내려 거미줄치고 타이어 바람 넣고 대일밴드 준비하겠습니다.
-
?
자전거님 추천하신 MTB를 하나 살까 고민하다가 MTB를 많이 할걱 같지가 않아서 지금 있는 고물자전거로 좀더 버텨 보기로 했습니다.
(여기에다 질럿다가는 후환이 두려워서...)
-
Hehe I know what you mean. Not a problem. By the way, do you want me to come by your house in the morning? That way, we can just load up the bike and head over to the trail together. Let me know.
-
?
Barns n nobles 로 가겠습니다. 아마 교회에서 그쪽으로 갈듯.
-
Do you want to try out one of my bike...it should fit you better plus it is my lightest bike at 24 lbs? Just let me know if you are interested.
-
?
관심은 있는데 Pedal이 보통 운동화로도 괜찮나요? 괜찮으면 하루만 빌려서 써볼까요? 기회가 있으면 다른 자전거로도 Try를 해보고 비교를
하고 싶었는데 기회가 없어서...
-
The pedal can be used with regular sneakers, although it will be a bit smaller than normal pedals. I will bring it for tomorrow. Please be aware that you might get spoiled by the bike though ;)
-
무슨 모델이죠 ? 24 파운드면 훌륭한데요. 마니토 포크에 Al 6061 Triple Butted Frame 이라도 더 이상 줄일 수없는 한계 무게인데요. 카본 잔차 무게는 아니니 알미늄인건 분명한데.
-
It's actually 24.6 lbs. Not the lightest bike, but I am a big guy so I can't go too light. Plus it's an old bike, so I don't see myself spending more money on it. By the way, it's Klein Attitude with Fox F80RLC fork with X9 components.
-
클라인이면 일단 썩어도 준치. SRAM X9 이면 변속기 사양도 훌륭.
-
Quick reminder to everyone. Please make sure to bring helmet for tomorrow's ride. Without it, you won't be able to ride.
-
?
참... 꼼꼼 하기도 하셔라... 네~~~에. 가져 갑니다 ^^
-
?
왕초보 까치 고물 자징~거 가지고 참가 합니다.
민폐가 되지 말아야 할텐데...
-
Welcome. Glad that you can join us.
