With so many options to hit up for a Sunday ride, I went somewhere with old friends where I can spend the whole day just pounding runs after beating runs. Near tacky dirt with caramel coated rocks sprinkled all over was very NOICE!




dislaimer: ok, the fork tech part was technically under a min. I wonder when the first fist fight on the trail with SDMBA and Average Joes would be first reported.....lol. Love and bored with the drama.

Nice bike shop you have there, great work. :thumbsup:

Orven, I rode TW yesterday and thought about letting you know as you requested but I need to work up to your skill level and didn't want us to hold you back since Jimbro and I basically are XC guys with DH dreams. I feel so ... average, yet I ride and ride and ride. :lol: It was hot as heck out there, though post-ride Oggi's drinks and calzone hit the spot.

No clinic or camp will replicate the shit you WILL learn and pick up just from riding and riding with average joes slightly better or experienced than you. Let's ride soon and do segments (I hate calling it clinic).

Dang, how many cups of coffee did you drink before starting to work on your bike?! I think I recognize that run from a previous video of yours. You kicked up a mini-avalanche at 2:24 -- kinda loose, huh? Another nice video.

I rode TW my very first time 2-weeks ago. I was by myself and frankly, a little intimidated. I'm up for going back with some 'average Joes' though.

I have to say, for such a small area, that place is impressive!

Im sure you could arrange it with filming rights of course. Live coverage? pay per view? the possibilities are endless :lol:

Riding skills. Mechanical skills. Movie making skills. STFU & RIDE skills. All things a bunch of us could learn from you!

Great vid. :cheers:
