Anyway...that little jump Mike does is butt pucker territory b/c if you stab the bank and high side...you're gonna roll like Farley in Black Sheep for a good 100 yards.

Yeah that thing is a mindfvck for sure. It's probably the most exposed jump I've ever hit, and you can't tell at all from the pictures. Luckily we just widened the bench cut after the landing to about twice what it was when you saw it. Parts of it are cut in 4+ feet deep in the side of the mountain.

As far as the secret stash, this one's pretty well-traveled by boonefolk, we're just trying to make it better for everyone...plus we love building trails. Riding your own handiwork is like nothing else.

For the record I'm the Cobler Elf. I'm surprised you can't see the vomit stains on the bars. Wee bit of pedalling involved.

Nah, no commission work for i9... just one of several images from a for fun shoot with a buddies new banshee. My guess would be the excess lube was wiped off. I think the wheels were the first thing purchased for the build, so i know there was plenty of time for idle hands to clean them up a bit.

in case you missed the CP workday thread:
got a lot of "clean up" done at CP today, rocks removed, holes filled, lips fixed. the place looks like a groomed bmx track now :thumb:
also built the beginners/yungins a stand alone double/stepdown. noah put in quite a bit of shovel work on this one and he helped move a lot of rocks as well. i was rather impressed...he didn't even whine or ask for food :thumb:

on the new double


double-hump-thingy at the bottome


trekbro has some pics of the groomed course now in the other thread.

Quill stem, Canti's, and a reflector, what a ripper.


that's my cousin on the red biike. I bought that bike back in '93 or '94. Still got all the original equipment on it, except cables. I gave it to him so I wouldn't be the only idiot dumbass out in the woods.
