there's some dope off-roading trails up in the 'cuse. Behind south campus. And there are quarries. Damn. That ***** made my life as an orangeman so much better. I just wish I had discovered it earlier than senior year.

Where? Just around the University?

I never see anyone.

erikinop 08-14-06 11:36 AM

all over the place... most of us don't do the car thing.

who are you? i am gold/tarnished frame with bullhorns guy. 22yr old, studying at SU(not from syracuse originally, but live here year round).

TeleJohn 08-14-06 11:54 AM

Eastwood.

Commute downtown via James.
Used to live in Chittenango, I miss that commute.

I don't have a fixed yet, but I am a big fan. I ride a grey Marin, racked and fendered. I also have a Scott road bike.

TeleJohn 08-14-06 04:59 PM

When and where?
I'm free evenings next week. I'm curious to see that there are fixies in Sad-excuse, *ahem*, I mean Syracuse.

Liverpool

Commute to the north side via Morgan and Old Liverpool Road.

Ride a white IRO Jamie Roy, though right now it is set up as a singlespeed. Have to get more used to the fix gear to take it on the road. Right now it is more like it is riding me.

To get to the trails up on South Campus, go up the road to the Admin building, and turn left into the gravel parking lot with the "roundabout" that is up there with nothing else built around it. Keep riding straight ahead towards the woods, ride around the small cable gate, over the rubble piles (Still heading towards the woods), then continue straight to what looks like a small rubble pile and a trail (woods road) magically appears and opens up into a barren wasteland of clay mine waste.

Here is a MS paint map I threw together...I was at ESF and graduated 2 years ago. The red line is the loop I mainly rode with the yellow lines being alternate routes if time was short. The blue area is as labeled...downhill. North Shore stuff, very nice to at least admire if you can't ride it (ramps, bridges, drops, boardwalks, ect). Have fun :)

i send out an email regarding rides. if anyone from the upstate area wants in, PM your email address. the season's not going to last forever... fixed riders prefered. weld the cassette to your damn hub if you have to

babychris 08-14-06 09:56 PM
