    I can get a few hours to skate on Monday in GH as well, probably find a few other locals too if anybody wants to join.

    common sense tells me to avoid that place tomorrow, being the holiday and all...but wanna arrange something later in the week?

    Oaky me and Doc Frye are hitting up A2 tomorrow afternoon at Pomona around 1pm.

    Up Pomona just off Miller Ave on the north west side of town. Depending on the wind etc... we might be hitting some other hills in the general area.

    Man it was impressive to see the DOC out in A2 today!

    We ripped some hills for 2 hours straight, we went over to another choice location.

    He stepped up and bombed every hill

    SO this is going to be a semi every wed afternoon ride at 1pm.

    I'll get a flyer to Launch in A2.

    You posers that don't make it out are missing out on about 8 fun hills

    Teddy, thanks again for showing me the spot to skate around Ann Arbor!
    It was an amazing session with great hills and pavement.
    Any of you guys around Ann Arbor should really try to get out there next wednesday or the next. I drive about 26 miles to skate these raods, and they are so worth it!

    Yes, I finally got up a decent speed again after my first time out with Teddy - that resulted in a huge tumble and a separated collarbone. This time we got up much more speed and it felt effortless. Saying it again - these roads are great!!! Show up if you are in the area.

    David

    ah thats super high end RICH whitey private villa.

    You can try riding there at your own risk..........

    I'm not into dealing with the paid renta cops nor the A2 local talent, or the Washtenaw county fuzz.........

    Plus its private........

    It is Sic, when I was a young kid we road bikes and other stuff out there......... back in the late 70's
