First pic reminds me of Cane Creek in Waxhaw, NC where they held a XC race once. Only place where I thought my testes had been permanently stretched out from the beating I took that day. Where is that?
I raced there once when I was in highschool (early 90's). Finished 36 of 104 in beginner after a pile up and almost fist fight with some good-ol-boys at the start. Not much there now.

Sounds like we were in the same beginner race. You should have gone left.;)

Only one of maybe 5 XC races I finished in the single digits, something like 8th.

I have two videos from the past weekend of riding downhill at Windrock and my dirt bike in Nashville.

The first is a wild crash on the new windmill trail near the bottom, almost to the parking lot. I clipped my pedal on a stump, went over the bars, and slid off a small cliff on my back. I walked away and did more runs afterwards.
Sorry I don't know how to embed them.

Some recent bermage work was done to our local XC trail. Nothing overly exciting but it makes the first 1/4 mile of trail a little more fun....

Berms....

They were asking to be ridden


Random guy, gotta love the kitted out guys on a Saturday afternoon


Riding buddy into the berms



Another random guy


I really wish there was a little more lip to really jump into these




I think this one is my favorite


Down low view


Same angle for me


Trying to wheelie out


Trying not to run over my buddy and the camera

So stoked in how this turned out seeing I am a video virgin. Learned a heck of a lot, which was my objective. Need some additional/different equipment and need to make some technical changes, but overall very happy for my first vid outing. Thanks to Jay and Chip for being my guinea pigs, had a blast guys. More to come!

Rocky Knob PB&J road gap. Rocky Knob has been super smooth and fast lately. If you haven't been out there, do yourself a favor and make the trip soon!

Vmt is prob the best flow trail out at blankets but it has the most climbing too.It has a fair amount of big berms and some sniper lines here and there. Its way better on Tues, Thurs, and Saturdays direction.

Rode Tripple mill and Harbins over the last few days. Heading to Beech in the morning with my bro and his son. Let me know what you have planned. May be able to do something. No plans till Sept. Just winging it as usual.
I'm just the opposite, gotta give the wife plenty of time to prepare for our trips haha. We are going to Ellijay for a week July 13th and then heading to Boone the following weekend for one of the Beech races. Be good to hook up if you are up there at that time...

Day off in Boone



Day off in Blacksburg
