Couple photos from this morning

My buddy Ben (on the Giant) and I (Tomac) went for an early am ride today and snapped a couple shots.

Enjoy!

Thanks everyone =] Did my morning huff and huck today in the quickest time yet on my DH bike. Its a 5 mile loop where the first 3/4 of it is climbing and the last 1/4 is some serious dh riding. Loads of fun on a full on dh bike haha. Did it in 51:43 today. Started at 1:06:00. Making some serious improvements.

As for your comment, oh man... I LOVE this bike. I am not just saying that for sponsorship reasons. This is by far the best DH bike I have ever owned.

Here is the bike shot, this is right after I built it.

I saw you ripping on it last time I was in your neck of the woods, but you were a ways off and I was hitting some jumps so I didn't chase you down to say hi, looks like a fun bike though.

Ah dang! Chase me down next time =] Always into meeting some new monkeys. Yeah, again, super happy with the bike!

Nice pics! Thanks for sharing.



Excellent time improvement.

Do you know your time for the climb vs the DH?

Thanks man! Doing the ride 2-3 times a week really has made a difference. The main part of the climb on my short travel (Tomac Snyper 140) takes about 14-20 min depending on if I am mashing or not. On the DH bike I think I am at about 30+ min haha. I think the whole ride on my short travel would take 30-40 min round trip. (I haven't done it in a while on the short travel)

As for the straight up dh part of the ride, it takes about 4-6 min total. So you can see the majority of the ride is climbing.
