Wow, that looks great! What trail are you guys on?
Man that was a fun day...nothing like getting all freetarded with the 'Woo. Gotta hit that shizz again sometime.
The rock Kevin is launching off...well of course it's bigger in person, but more importantly there is also a sketchy run in to a ladder bridge and gap jump of about 5 feet or so onto the slab. Casing or overshooting the approach would be bad. Definitely the tech move of the day and Kidwoo nailed it. The rest of us moused out, citing clipless pedals, the wrong bikes, and sandy vaginas.
BTW, the fine folks at the ER could not tell if my buddy's nose was broken
, but he's fine and had no problems riding the next couple of days.

Good to hear. I cringe thinking about the force behind his face pushing it into that tree. eeesh

Yeah he came out amazingly well, considering.
For those who weren't there, my friend used his face to stop his bike. He looked back to check on something then looked ahead just before taking a tree branch to the nose. Oh, and this was an MTB tandem with his girlfriend on the back. Yeah, one nose to stop two people and a very heavy bike.
I am glad your friend is ok. I didn't see anyone bleeding when I caught you on Sunday, so I hope everyone was feeling alright then.OGRipper said:Yeah he came out amazingly well, considering.

Nice tech work! Definitely some tough stuff to work through.
sick.
freetarted indeed.

Sweet pics, looks like a blast.
Freetarted, I like that word.
Jackass and Dirty Harry are great trails. I was in Tahoe in the Fall and winter living at squaw, got to ride both in November, that rock stunt is super fun. Wish I could be riding there right now, but VT is starting to dry out. Is the tyrolian DH melted out yet?
nice one. generally speaking, where are those trails? it's been a while since i did any trail riding @ tahoe but i know the general vicinity.
narlus<------------WOOT WOOT!
took care of it. i didn't want details, just general vicinities.
all is well.
all is well.

Right. And the more you get people in the area looking for them, the more cars you get parked around there.

I think so. I keep falling on the other shoulder so it's all good.
I rode toads the other day and slid off all the sand on the last bridge at full speed. Should be clear now. Cept for the leg hair on the edge of the lumber.
Want to ride?
Just a phone call away.
