ping: front range riders

quark soup said:

Hey, all, I just got myself a week off work on the week of the 15th!
Anyone up for a MUni ride that week?

Maybe Wednesday afternoon or Thursday (at my usual slow pace).

By the way, I saw this item in today's Fort Collins Coloradoan:

"The Cycologist" is offering mountain unicycling rides at 5
p.m. Wednesdays at the west terminus of Horsetooth Road. For
information call [970]482-0882.

I'll be there this week for sure.

I'm a denverite new to muni-ing. Holler if you want to ride around
Denver or head for the hills and ride some single track. I'm rough
around the edges when it comes to trail riding but game for anything and
need the practice.

Well, fellas, I have good news and bad news. The good news is my
vacation just turned into two weeks. The bad news is that this is
because I sprained my ankle yesterday in a spectacular UPD.

I was riding a section I have ridden many times, and is only moderately
difficult, but somehow I needed to swerve to avoid a rock, and couldn't
quite right myself in afterwards. I ended up dismounting off the front
of the uni, right off the edge of the trail and down the hill at about
45 degrees in a full run. The hill was strewn with cactus and other
prickly plants and with rocks each about 1 foot in diameter, spaced a
couple feet apart, and embedded in the side of the hill.

I managed to run the whole thing out in about 20 feet, planting my feet
frantically on any flat spots I could find and trying to slow my
descent. Just as a came to a stop, the last rock I planted my right
foot on twisted it to the outside. Wow, it could have been alot
worse!

Anyway, I won't be riding for the next couple of weeks, so thanks for
the invitations, anyway, and I'm sure we'll get to ride sometime in the
near future. After I order some Active Ankles. 🙄
