In an effort to keep our lungs and legs warmed up in the off-season, we try and get at least one good run scheduled each year. This year, we will be participating in the St Patty's Day Fun Run <span class="yshortcuts" id="lw_1358540551_0">on Saturday, March 16, 2013</span>. The cost is $20 (no t-shirt option) and on-line registration is going on now at <a href="http://www.ymcatvidaho.org/StPatricksDayRun" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"><span class="yshortcuts" id="lw_1358540551_1"><span style="color: #2862c5;">http://www.ymcatvidaho.org/StPatricksDayRun</span></span></a>. Unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be a team option so if you're interested and get signed up, shoot us an email and let us know. <br /><br />There is a 5K and also a 5 mile option. They encourage dressing up in your best St Patty's outfits so bring on the green! <br /><br />We will have a meeting spot prior to the race and will also pick a place to meet for a post-run green beer! What better way to kick off your Saint Patty's day celebrations.

Plan on meeting at the parking lot across from the dog park (Fort Boise Park) near the baseball field (nearest cross roads - Mountain Cove Rd and Reserve St) to be on the trails by 6:30. As always, we will be heading somewhere for drinks/food afterwards. Hope to see everyone there!<br /><br />In addition......<strong>MARK YOUR CALENDARS</strong>! As heartbreaking as it is, our last orgainzed ride for the season will be on <strong>Monday, September 24th</strong>. We will be having our usual end of season ride and celebration at the Eagle Bike Park with food and champagne! More details to follow next week but make sure and save the date. It's always a great time! <br /><br />We will still continue to ride after the 24th as long as the weather/daylight allows and will post on facebook each time - they will just be more impromptu. It's been such a fantastic season and we're already looking forward to next April to start it all over again. :)<br />Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4401144452056090176.post-36136457279669724982012-09-11T08:58:00.000-06:002012-09-11T08:58:21.188-06:00Hulls Gulch 9/10/12<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

We will then tackle the climb known as Sidewinder, once there we will either ride down hulls or continue on to Fat Tire. It will all depend on how everyone is feeling, this ride will be at least 8-11 miles. Sidewinder is a longer climb then what we have done this year, approximately 5.5 miles of climbing before any descent, so be ready to head up hill on Monday. As always we will head down to Hyde Park restaurants after the ride for some chit-chat and grub.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4401144452056090176.post-12572038773217127032012-09-11T08:56:00.001-06:002012-09-11T08:56:15.318-06:00Eagle Bike Park 8/27/12<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

This time we will start behind the Idaho State Veteran's Cemetery and ride North towards the park. Plan to be in the parking lot to ride at 6:30pm. After the ride we will head to Applebee's for dinner and drinks.<br /><br />Directions to the parking lot: Heading north on Gary Lane turn left (west) until to Hill Road, turn right (North) onto Duncan Lane at the end of Duncan Lane should be a short steeper road road called Cemetery Rd. This road is an entrance road into the cemetery, but instead of entering the cemetery there is a parking lot on the north side. If you get lost give Tesh a call at 961-1127.<br /><br />Hope to see you there!<br />Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4401144452056090176.post-26372434035117857302012-08-23T12:56:00.002-06:002012-08-23T12:56:42.000-06:00Kestel - Hulls Gulch 8/20<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

We will be riding the table rock trails which provide many opportunities to climb and descend rocks. Although this trail is considered one of the most technically challenging trails in Boise, there are ride arounds for the rock features. The trail is a short uphill (unless we chose to ascend to the very top) but is steep at times, once on top it is a flat trail with all sorts of obstacles for us to stop and session.<br />
<br />
We will start our ride at the Warm Springs Golf Course parking lot at 7:00 p.m. After the ride we plan on heading over to Lucky 13 for dinner and drinks. <br />
<br />

This would be considered an intermediate to advanced ride due to the continuous single track climb up (approx. 2.5 miles) and winding descents (some rocks).<br />
<br />
We will start our ride at lower lodge, climbing up Deer Point Trail, looping around the backside of the mountain on Elk Meadows Trail, head to the Pioneer Lodge on Lodge Trail and finish with a fun ride down Morning Star. Morning Star has had lots of elevated additions added to it, but all are avoidable if you choose. Total ride is approx. 6 miles and should take about 2 hours. <br />
<br />
Bring a cold beverage if you'd like to enjoy after the ride and a warm jacket as the temps do drop fast in the evening.<br />
<br />
We will be meeting at Highlands Elementary (3434 Bogus Basin Road) at 5:45 p.m. to arrange carpooling and roll out by 6:00.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4401144452056090176.post-59768931320388252192012-08-01T12:25:00.000-06:002012-08-01T12:25:00.328-06:00Kestrel - 7/30<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Depending on the heat and amount of girls that come, we will chose the ride that suits the group best. Plan to meet at the old Ridley's parking lot (on Bogus Basin Road) at 7:00 PM. We will then decide how much of Corrals we will do and if a shuttle option will be needed. Because a shuttle option may be needed please let us know if you plan on riding this Monday.<br />
<br />
Additionally, if any of you have any trail suggestions for our upcoming rides please let us know and we will try to fit them into our upcoming rides.<br />

Let's plan on being on the trail by<strong> 7:30</strong> (an hour later then our norm which will also help with the heat). We will be BBQ'ing afterwards and will be providing hot dogs and condiments. If you'd like, bring an easy side and/or your favorite cold beverage to enjoy in the covered picnic area afterwards. <br /><br />Directions: From State Street, head North on "N Horseshoe Bend Road". This is the road just east of Highway 55 (right by WINCO). Stay on this road for a few miles and you will see the park to your right. You can also type in "<strong>Idaho Velodrome and Cycling Park</strong>" into mapquest to get directions.

The specific trail has yet to be chosen, but there are mutliple loops and trails and we will decide the trail based on what suits the group best. <br /><br />Let's plan on meeting at Camel's Back parking lot (off of 13th street by the tennis courts) to be on the trail by 6:30.<br /><br />We will head to Hyde Park afterwards for food and a cocktail for anyone interested.<br /><br />Hope to see you there!<br />Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0
