Bike Shots from Lyons Outdoor Games

The fun started Friday night with the Yellow Designs stunt team and a fantastic demo show on Railroad Ave.




Sat day was mostly kayaking stuff and a 5k fun run Dash and Bash in the middle. I worked. Later Saturday, though, we got a baby sitter to attend the L.O.G. party at the Oskar Blues party barn. That was some fun times. So fun, in fact that I was hanging pretty hard today.

Nothing helps a hanging more than the hair of the dog that bit me. In this case it was the L.O.G. dirt jump contest. I was in the shop so I missed out on the pumptrack contest action, but I heard it was a pretty good time. The dirt jumpers went off. Big time. I didn't get a shot of it, but someone pulled off a no hander backflip. Damn, that's some mad skills right there. Here's a few action shots.

Lyons Outdoor Games is this weekend!

Come on out this weekend for the 2010 Lyons Outdoor Games. Kayak events start Friday at 4pm and last all weekend. Bike events will be on Saturday, starting with an XC short track race at 2pm. The Yellow Designs stunt team will be on hand all weekend doing demos and clinics as well. Stick around for the main events Saturday pm, too - a pumptrack contest followed up by the Dirt Jump contest. Fun gauranteed!

And don't forget the party at Oskar's on Saturday night, too! See you there. :)

great tuesday nighter

Thanks everyone for coming out. I think that ride, to this day, was the least carnage or mechanical filled Tuesday Nighter at Lion's Gulch yet. Only 1 minor mechanical and 2 flats and we were even out by dark. dang. We'll have to try harder next time.

The climbing was tough



There was a good, not oft ridden meadow


and some fun desceding


Jen G takes one of the hard sections and makes it look easy.

Day at the Park

Next weekend is time for the Lyons Outdoor Games. We'll have a bunch of cool kayaking events, chainsaw carving (?), skate competition, pump track contest, dirt jump contest, and a mountain bike short track. Whew.

Today was one of the last big build/work/jump sessions at the Lyons dirt jumps before LOG. I worked at the shop today and got over to the park when most of the work was starting to wind up. Thanks to all who were there for working and helping to get the park in shape.

Here's a few shots from the latter part...
