Conditions were horrid the weather man said occasional showers, welp it showered on me and my bikey on both occasions i went riding. Like i always say you cannot be "one" with the trail if you don't know what it tastes like.
Went to Galbraith and rode some XC with some pals on Saturday,and i must say it's always inviting to see someone launch off a log drop with a Specialized Epic.(yes of course it's bigger than the pic makes it look
)
Of course when you are about to ride a trail called "Kung-Fu Theater" you gotta warm up before you shred it with much ruthlessness. Wonderful bikey-fu form, i'm so proud of them all.
Technical XC riding is pretty durned fun, and i was sad to leave. For even though the riding was outstanding and very spiritually enlightining, i was still incomplete....
Well in order to solve my quandary over not being completely fulfilled i rode with Serial Midget and his pal at Capitol Forest this wet Sunday morn. And of course it poured on us.
And after a hard grueling exhaustive two days of riding Master Sensei Serial Midget taught me a valuable lesson in mt. biking. And that lesson is......
you just don't f*** with XC.........................
baby.

luckily he was not injured. A seat post up your ass is never a good idea. Anyhow were were still 5 miles from the closest road and it was all climb. He climbed out standing as best he could pedaling all but the muddiest parts and and then pedaled and additional 7 miles of fireroad and pavement until we got back to camp. His quads are gonna be toast for days.
:mumble:

I would rather go right down the road and ride at Tape and thorned up instead....
