Fuck the Courtesy Phone. You're all Winners! First for riding your Bikes. Second for taking pictures and then sharing them with us. I really enjoy this thread. Permij
A video instead. Finally cleared one of the steepest sections on a local trail. Only use rear brake and hold on. That shoot starts at 1:40. I with the video did the steepness justice, you can kind of tell by the angle of the trees, but the x2 previous attempts after washing out my front end I slid for 10-15ft. Also first video on my new GoPro. Enjoy!
There seems to be some weird brown stuff on the ground you're riding on, not sure what that is.
Otherwise, pointy elbows 1/10, would not bang.
nope, sure didn't!

), but went for a hike today. Found some rocks for 
mills river crossings?
Yes, that up to squirrel was interesting, talked to someone that said we could probably make it. We did make it, then for some stupid reason we thought going up Bradley creek would be a good idea, it wasn’t.

Made that mistake as well. We lost count of the number of river crossings..
Thankfully it was warmish today. That would be a hard no on a cold day
Inspired by you other video posters, the downhill parts of my ride yesterday. Some of my favourite trials at the moment. Not super gnar but really fun and they have their little moments. It is silent. My kid said ‘No one wants to hear you panting, dad.’
Carparts at 0:25, Ikigai at 4:40, Serendipity at 11:05.
For some reason the video is slightly slower than real life, my time for Ikigai and Serendipity this day was 8:34 IRL (Strava segment), but it takes 9:15 in the video. Not sure why. Camera is no go-pro though, so let’s blame that.

Was a good day throwing dirt.
Building a couple new trail sections.
Filling in some bomb holes in some natural rollers leading into a little booter / drop
Small booter falling away into a hillside landing into a left then probably a double before meeting up with the trail running across the bottom.

Dang, your dirt still looks perfect. We're doing the yo-yo of snow-rain-snow thing up here.
More rocks from today on one of the Bruce side trails. Aptly named Splitrock Narrows. Yep, can confirm, the rock is split and narrow. Don't fall in...
Some interesting fossils in this ancient rock. I assume this was at the bottom of an ocean at some point?
Sun was trying real hard to make an appearance today and chased it across three towns. Easy 25 mile ride made better having the Sun out.
Nice! Izzdat Mexico?
Naw - just boring XC trails over on da East Side...
Yes, I think they are both newer. Carparts is still fun but it is not as good as Ikigai which IMO is the funnest track at Polhill.
