Sam's Ringwood Birthday Ride!

October seems to be a big birthday month! My pal Sam, manager of Bicycles NYC, had his birthday this past Sunday so the ride was his choice and his choice was old faithful Ringwood in NJ. We love Ringwood. It is brutal, unforgiving, and satisfying. In the crew....Sam, Kevin, Jason, and myself. An excellent group and we've ridden together so the pacing is pretty happening, Sam riding his SS 29er baby, twisted titanium Lynskey. Very manly. Low to mid 60's and the weather couldn't have been better. We layed down the destruction with me in the lead and those animals pushing me harder and faster. It felt great and it hurt at the same time. I love birthday rides... Kevin forgot his shoes, Sam had a pair of flat pedals in his truck and a pedal wrench. Kevin did not forget the cold beers. Thank you Kevin!
