Go forth and ride, then bring back pics

[JoshP]

^^Wow dude, that looks amazing. Awesome shots.

[Dromond]

^^^ I've been wanting to do a trip in that area. Awesome bike photos, man!!!

[Morroi]

Nice tracks in the woods around Ytrac (France) today. Epic 26km ride!!

[mtrider]

Sweet Truman Gulch evening ride!

[hortence]

Norhern New Mexico is greener and lusher than it's been in many a year.


A little tomfoolery.


More than a little erosion, grace of wildfires a few years ago. Some trails are lost, but many areas are starting to come back.


Beef on the hoof.


Interesting terrain and some hike a bike.


Charge!

My t2i went over a waterfall early in my trip so here are some iphone shots I got in Moab when I had the chance. Again, dont hate on the poor quality and lack of trying on the photos.

Had a fucking rad time in Jackson this past week. More to come.

[grinch]

2 1/2 hr hike a bike west of town

[powder11]

3 days in the saddle... you know my body hurt! It being summer, I took off my shirt, and I tried to wash away some of that dusty dirt!

water taxi to funtown



requesting permission to land, Lorna tower!



see ya in 3 days, have a good one!





catch me some dinner



off to never, never land



this shit does exist



like doing a wall dive in SCUBA... you want to keep going down, but know it could be the end of you if you did.



Chilcotin is native for "push bike uphill"



there's gold in them thar hills



riding down into prime grizzly bear habitat with a head wind is always a good time



fully expecting a big brown head to pop up at any moment adds a little spice to the ride



stoke level is running "high" around the camp fire after day 1



see Dave, we rode up from way the fuck over there



start of Day 2. Lorna to Spruce Lake via Deer pass. almost 8 hrs in the saddle.



what goes up must come down



downhill riding is tiring!



screeriding is the new freeriding





I belted out a few lines from the sound of music riding down this one



same here



stoke level after day 2 and 65k of singletrack in one day!



the start on another busy day for Tyax air at Spruce lake where most folks start from, but day 3 for us. Paul getting shit done!



buddy broke his tow and had to carry his bike up rather than push it! only one way out in the Chilcotin!



windy pass



taking the bikes for a hike



I will let the pictures do the talking





more screeriding



Charles Bronson



obligatory gay alpine meadows blooming flower shot. summer riding at it's finest.



Dr. Gnarly leading a dual life



cowboy country



heading back down to civilization



the best single track you will probably never ride

A couple from the last week or so:











This radar is in the first pic too:

Connected two spots together, with a touch of pavement. Pleasant surprise was finding a hugely long stretch of these guys along the roadway.
I ate a lot of 'em.


Did he make it?


My in-laws are only a few minutes from Bradbury State Park, in Maine. Finally managed to bring a bike up when visiting.


Pops, I seriously did not like the long drive up there.


Blue Mtn. tomorrow, Diablow Sunday, Trumbull on Monday, the local bit on Tuesday.
Of all the places to break your G2 guide. Meh. No, not mine - found piece.


Sorta' local, good flavor, not expensive, quite portable.


The infamous "east coast rawks" here. Yet, I managed to survive on a low bb, and non-large wheeled bike.


This fork feels good. Really good. 15mm nay-sayers: don't sweat it, unless you have to buy a new hub/wheel. It's pretty freakin' stiff. As in, feels stiffer than the Lyrik it replaced.


My favorite local spot - can pedal to in twenty minutes. Anything from an hour quicky, or enough trail and areas that connect to be out near all day.


I need a winch.

its been wet n cool in CO lately

[Dantheman]

Every great ride deserves a great post-ride meal

[beaterdit]

Days, nice Dan. Bike is looking dialed.

Want to ride so bad, got another 6-8 weeks in the gimp corner.

[Charmander]

Well, its a parking lot pic, but I'm fuckin stoked. This was my 1st trail ride since I fucked up my hand bout 5 years ago riding bikes. Easy up and down with my chick, still found some fun corners and I'm happy to report riding still feels natural.

And I dunno if y'all can tell but I have both brakes and the shifter on the left side, cause the right hand don't work, first day out with this setup and everything feels pretty dialed so thats a success.

[Incompetent Boob]

^Awesome! I saw a helmet cam vid of a guy who injured a nerve and couldn't use an arm riding Champery, something I struggle with at the best of times, it amazed me. Really impressed by you getting back out there too!

[scrublover]

...but I'm fuckin stoked...

All you need! Excellent, and have fun with it!

Had a great day at Mt. Creek yesterday. Ran into one mag, and his name completely escapes me at the moment.


Judged.


Found wanting.


They have a sweet rental fleet, by the by.

[Morroi]

Lovely tracks around home this pm...

[jamal]

Smoke from the fire south of town.



Took that on Tuesday. it's just everywhere now and gross.

Fuck yeah...good to see some creek stoke on here. Hoping I'll be cleared before they shut down.

Did you ride alpine since they redid the top section? I've been hearing good things.

As for rentals Ant in the shop is the man and rips.

Yeah, but it wasn't all the way done yet - no biggy to me though, as I prefer the chunkier stuff anyhow.

No worries on rentals - I'm rolling my own anyhow.

Otherwise:







Blur guard.

[Dantheman]

Mmmm...alpine.













Through the pass at 8K. Note optional spur to the summit at 9K. It was tough to pass on it but time didn't allow.


The only pic I managed to stop for on the stellar 8 mile, 4,500 ft descent. The pic doesn't do the exposure justice.
