Over yonder shootin' range. We salute.
Good things come to those who climb. Despite the views, the descents are what keep you coming back.
And one particular local descent is littered with about 150 errosion-controlling water bars that double as Super Mario Bros. obstacles... for the adventerous, anyway...
Master this fluffy souffle and you'll earn some serious confidence points; holding the brake lever like a trigger this sucker keeps you on your toes...
Tip O' The Day:
Learn to work on your own stuff - this ain't rocket science, it's bikes: bolts, cogs, and the occasional brake fluid. The Mrs. and I have 6 bikes betwixt the two of us. Ok 5 are mine. But if I had a nickel for every time I turned a wrench, swapped a fork, or bled the discs, I'd be the U.S. Treasury - Geitner or not...
Good news: I got through my first crash on the new rig and we both escaped unscathed. What does it mean, by the way, when you're more concerned about smacking your frame on a rock than you are about your own safety?
