Those look really nice! I wish I could have gone, but plane tickets are
expensive. Looks like you had a great time.

Those are awsome pictures, that place looks like heaven!

That's making me wonder if I should go to CMW instead of MoabMuniFest
next year! :eek:

I think they're both great events. But if I had to choose just one, I
would choose Moab. The thing about CMW is that all the trails tend to
be singletrack, which means you can go a good long ways and only see a
few people who are around your same strength. At Moab, the terrain is
much more open, so you can really get the feeling of riding in a big
group. Moab is also stunningly beautiful, although Tahoe and Santa
Cruz (the site for CMW 2007) are also very pretty places.

I agree with mornish; do both!

Tell me about it. On Sunday there was a group that didn't stick around
for our group photo, and I don't know if I ever saw any of them again;
I'm not even sure who they were? Part of that is planning; maybe we
should have asked (nicer) for people to stop occasionally and let us
group up.

Next year should be different with the Coker rides, many of which will
probably be on wider trails. Also by breaking into smaller groups, it
will be easier for the groups to start and finish relatively together.

That said, Moab and CA each have their share of stunning scenery and
various types of terrain. A well-rounded rider should try to get to
both; if you've been to one, shoot for the other one next!

This slowly became an issue with us Mo boys, maybe because we're not
use to riding with other muni riders. We were having a hard time
adjusting to these "extended picnics" as I started calling them, not
that stopping is a bad thing but stopping for over 30 minutes makes for
stone-cold legs, lowered body temperature and personally takes away from
my riding experience. I would prefer to do most of my socializing
afterwards over a plate of fresh-mex and a beverage of choice and let
each person ride their own ride. My most memorable experience from the
weekend was riding with people that I naturally fell into place with
because we rode close to the same level for long periods of time. It
seems to me that Muni riding encompasses many different types of riders
with different abilities and different styles, more than any sport I
have ever encountered and I feel you would take away from personal
experiences when you force them all to conform to the same ability.

Having said that, overall I had a great time. The weather was perfect,
the scenery was beautiful, I won a new unicycle (yeah, that was me) and
things seemed to move along nicely through the weekend. Riding the
complete Hole in the Ground trail would have been the icing on the
cake, (there were more than two people who rode on past the overlook)
the massive red fir trees in the valley below were some of the tallest
I seen that weekend.

I met many people whom I wish could be my new riding buddies but there
are just to many miles in between so hopefully we'll ride again at
another festival. 🙂

I agree with that. Coming from an XC mountain biking mentality of
riding and riding and riding without stopping, the eating and drinking
breaks felt a bit long to me. I found that I had to bring more food
and water just because we stopped and "cooled down" for so long.

I like all the breaks, it is a time to play on rocks and stuff. If you
don't do trials or other riding on the breaks I can see how you would
cool down. I usually go to stuff like that to ride a lot so I wouldn't
want to get done with the ride really fast because then there is
nothing really to do, people usually just leave after rides. With the
stops it gives people a chance to play on stuff, socialize, and since
no one is rushing through it so fast you can see a lot more people.

Group muni rides are like that, especially the larger group rides at
events like the CMW. We seem to like to do a lot of socializing while
on the trail.

A CMW group ride is never going to be a hard-core ride with few stops.
If you want a more hard-core ride you have to do it either alone or with
a small group of riders with the same mindset as you with regards to
riding.
