Hi

The Riding Fool Hostel has been booked once again for the August long weekend. We will start taking bookings in the next few weeks. Please check the forum over the next few weeks. We will again have a limit of 25 people. It is very likely that once we have the sign up process is set up, it will sell out. You need to be near a intermediate level rider, with good fitness or better to participate.

Thanks Sheldon

Hi


Looks like we sell this one out, so if you have been sitting on the fence, I would get off it and sign up soon! Just sayin!


Thanks Sheldon

We have 12 spots left.

I put the registration meter on the [url=http://www.karelo.com/register.php?BID=258&BT=10&PrivEv=7360]Cumberland registration page[/url].

It can only be shown by a percentage format, not how many spots left.

Do you here that...........................................? Thats of the sound of you missing out on a great weekend cause you chose to sit on the fence and hope that it wouldn't sell out before you got your tax return back. Time to eat KD till the cheque shows up from the gov. The sooner it sells out the sooner I stop typing this nudge stuff ;D

The deadline for the registration was July 15th, but we just extended it.  If you are interested, please sign up asap as we have to organize rides and dinners.  Thanks.

We even opened up a ride leader spot last week.  :-\

I haven't heard anyone wanting to cancel the registration.  The hostel only has 30 beds and we have 4 leaders and 25 members signed up.  Only one spot left.

Hey Paula,

There is no problem showing up to ride but I'm not sure of the status for beds or food at the hostel. There are lots of places to stay so you could find something if there is no room. Give me a call when you know your plans. We are heading to Forbidden Plateau on Sunday and and maybe more of Cumberland on Monday.

Hi

Great weekend. Pretty sure there are bunch of tired puppies riding the ferries tonight. The trails were amazing. I want to thank all of you who participated. I also want to thank Kekio for taking care of the accounting and computer stuff. Brian B, Meghan H. and Ken N, thank-you for leading, it was really nice being able to keep the groups small so the rides flowed well. There will be a little write up and pics soon. I really enjoyed planning this weekend and all of you made it worth doing.



Thanks Sheldon

I agree that was one kick ass trip.  Great food, great trails, great swimming, and great heckling.  Thanks to all the ride leaders and the organizers!

Yes, looking back it felt like more of a vacation than a long weekend. Many, many thanks to all the leaders and organizers! Pics and GPS tracks to follow...

Yes, wow! That was an awesome weekend. The great thing about the weekend was that I actually saw improvements in everyone's riding. There were a few trails that we repeated because they were great but also because it gave eveyone the chance to practice/learn techniques as they knew what was coming up. There were a few tricky sections of trail for sure but everyone pushed their limits a little here and there. Very impressed. That is how you become a better rider because everyone can learn something new. I learned that it is hard to pump a roller and land one footed (outside foot) in a corner without doing the splits. That was fun  :P

All in all I had a great time and got to know some people a lot better.
