Took the new camera out to hood river a weekend or two back. Here are a few I took before I realized that forgetting to take the polarizer off + low light = blurry riders.:nonono2:

That hood river stuff looks fun.
Didn't get much riding done this weekend.
But I did build a sweet new rack for the bikes.

Shortly after heard a loud *snap* sound. On the bike. Couldn't find anything, so rode on. No noise. A few minutes later, my drive side crank arm fell off. Oops. Never broke a crank bole before. A ride ender ~ 1/3 into what I'd planned for the day. Had a beer, went home and replaced the snapped bolt. Same cranks on two bike, so figured it'd be good to have a spare bolt kicking around in the parts bin...

Rest on the TRT from Brockway Summit to Tahoe City on Sat. Unfortunately the smoke/haze kept us from seeing those clear shots of the lake and surrounding mountains...

It's from an older ride. Haven't taken pics on a ride in a while.

Today at playtime:
Nice and smooth LZ on this one. Working up to one a little bigger than this in there, that has a bit of a gap that sketches me out.

IMO, this would have made a better drop from the rock up top, but then I didn't build the trail. Or maybe a skinnier skinny instead.
http://i44.photobucket.com/albums/f1...8/IMG_5970.jpg
A side line - up the backside, then down the nose of the rock - right back onto the main trail.
http://i44.photobucket.com/albums/f1...8/IMG_5992.jpg
Lotsa more good stuff in this area. It'll take some more exploring for me to figure out all the various loops and connections.
Great thread and great shots!
Lovin' Scrublover's first pic - we have alot of that kind of stuff here too (and riding it with fully rigid = pretty cool in my book, heh)
Here's a few ones I shot recently. I was riding solo this time, so no action shots...

(The post was quite unfinished as I was really busy...if someone REALLY is interested in riding in our country, shoot me a PM :))
I have enjoyed this thread so I thought I would resurrect it with some weekend pics. It was one of the bigger rides I have done in awhile, and so satisfying. 19 hours in the saddle over 2 days.

Wifey and I had a wedding to hit south of Boston Saturday. Packed a bike along, and got a couple hours of zooming around the Vietnam trails kinda-sorta on the way home today.
The object of my ongoing obsession, so much so I have been on only a handful of trail rides all summer. I would just rather go dirt jump. A line coming back is in the process of being built.
Oh, and this is in a city park, built by people hired by the city.
http://cmoney.smugmug.com/photos/615341587_zE8tn-X3.jpg
Only have the pano because I'm pretty much the only one there when I go. I guess the dirt jump crowd doesn't like early mornings.
Oh, wait, I did get this shot. My only company on a perfect Saturday morning..

^I'm so down there once it cools off.
That place looks rad.
Yeah, I definitely need to come out to 'inspect' our house...
blah blah blah
Hadley rear, Hope front, SARS something or other headset off ebay. Dangerboy levers on Juicy-5. I'd not buy them again. Can't tell a bit of difference at the lever from the stock blades. Still ended up needing new lever blade bushings or to shim the blade to get ride of some slop, and that was new out of the box. Couple little shims fixed that.

I was in California last week visiting family. I took the XC bike and decided to ride a really cool trail that I had not ridden since high school. This trail only sees a handful of bike tires every year, the nearest town of any real significance is 1.5 hours away and doesn't have any stoplights.
Sometimes getting there and back is just as fun. ~80 miles RT of this + WRX = happy DTM

One of several bridges along the trail. They are sketchier then they look in the picture, with high consequences for failure and being alone in bumfuck nowhere I didn't have the balls to ride them.

The camera decided to crap out for most of the ride so I only got one pic of the actual trail, but this pretty much captures it. Perfectly buff, flowy forested single track with some great exposure and river views along the way. The whole thing was basically raked.
