Before CapitolForest.com, before the FOCF maintenance campaigns of the late 00's and 10's and before smart phones with live tracking trail maps - Capitol Forest was an unexplored, remote, poorly maintained, difficult to navigate, inhospitable jungle kind of place. Vast and dark, the trails were overgrown with aggressive foliage, the trail tread was often just as aggressive, poorly maintained and equally hostile. The navigation means for riding in Capitol Forest at the time were to buy (if you were lucky enough to find one for sale) and bring a paper map that would inevitably get destroyed in the rain and mud (yes, it used to rain steadily all 12 months) and follow the trail signs that may or may not have been posted and may or may not have been accurate. In addition to a dissolving wet paper map and some luck, riding in Capitol Forest required a strong sense of adventure and a high need for an unpredictable riding experience full of The Joy of Suffering. It was a time of the perfectly imperfect Capitol Forest riding experience. Out of this uncharted period in Capitol Forest history, the Sick Puke was born. The Sick Puke was (and still is) an off the formal event calendar group ride that attracted local and locally connected regional riders looking to take part in a big day, in a big way, the wild and undeveloped mtb riding experience of the early 00's Capitol Forest. As Capitol Forest has evolved and developed over the years, the Sick Puke has as well. The Sick Puke is as it has always been - a day of new and unexpected Capitol Forest riding experiences. |
