friday the 14th 530ish rayburn

It will be an ultra slow short loop. I screwed up my foot and will be on a hardtail. Will be riding with someone about an advanced beginner/ novice ability so everyone is welcome no drops... Even though I ll probably be the one lagging. Im not a definite yet so anyone who knows the area that wants to ride and doesnt mind leading my friend is a definite and looking for someone to ride with.

We ll be starting from buck bros.

What did you do??? I will bring my stuff and plan on coming seeing that I haven't ridden Rayburn yet this year.

Some of us ride a hardtail regardless of a busted foot you know ;)

I'll be there. I don't know the trails well enough to lead your friend however.

Ha my squishy spoils me. I ll be the first to admit it.

The low down on busted foot is im lazy... I have my bikes leaning against my table (this is the laziness, never put them away) and it kind of closes off the hallway. About 530 monday morning still foggy headed and half asleep I went to walk by the bikes and walked to close to the corner of the wall that seperated my living room and bedroom and sure enough kicked the corner pretty hard. My first thought was ohh thats definitely broken. I based that judgement on the initial pain mostly but the fact that my pinky toe was pointing the opposite direction sure reenforced the initial diagnosis. However after taping it to my other toe its kind of back to normal and I changed my diagnosis to just sprained... Mostly cause I dont have insurance and thats alot cheaper lol.

But anywho. Ellie is who I ll be showing up with. Singletrack has ridden with her already. If i dont end up going she ll be showing up in a minivan I believe. Shes told me 5 45 might be a more realistic time of arrival. Should give us plenty of time for the loop I was planning. Since kevin will be there and hes still showing me around the place Im sure he ll end up leading anyway lol.

Anyone who doesnt know where we re meeting chime in and i ll find the google link.

I just rode to get my hair cut today and my foot didnt hurt at all while riding. So I came to the conclusion I need to figure out how to ride my bike while working on the staging at work and it will be a pain free day.

Been there. Fell in a rocky riverbed last year and jammed my ring finger pretty good. It hurt like hell, but it was straight (the swelling made it look straighter than it really was), I could sort of move it, so I diagnosed it as sprained for the same reason... haha

When you get a nice sized (and hard as a rock) bump on the bone on your toe, you'll reconsider your diagnosis.
