05/06 & 05/07/07-Mt. Bike Area #1






Had some free time on Saturday so i went up with jake and built a step down on the sictar lars trail. we worked on this thing for about six hours straight. the stump removal was about three hours of it alone. after building, jake hit the jump on his hardtail. it seemed a bit rough watching him jump it on a bike with no rear suspension. i went back that evening with ryan and dave and hit the jump on my demo...well steven's brothers demo and the stunt felt like nothing. about a six foot drop to a smooth landing. we then rode the 2.3 mile trail back into gales creek. very fast and fun, saw no other riders and trail conditions were awesome.






still don't have the new totem back from rock shox. crazy eh, one ride and it's off to the factory for repair. if it weren't for how nice this fork worked when it was here, i would have told them to stick it and i want my $ back. we'll see how it goes. so this weekend i'm going to borrow a fork from darren and stick it on the norco temporarily.






until the next ride!
