10-26-07 Post Canyon

Went out to Post Canyon with Terry and Casey after work. Conditions were surprisingly dry. We just stayed and sessioned the chorus jumps for a few hours.

It is nice to be able to drive to the spot you are riding. no carrying your heavy pack...just walk back to the car and take a drink or eat something.

Got a couple alright shots. i was using the small camera

Causey was trying to get the air suspension dialed in on his kona. don't buy air shocks or forks. very unpredictable and hard to tune.

this poor dude was right in the middle of a freshly broken right collar bone. his bonhead buddies were trying to make him ride down? shouldn't they have gone and picked up the car and picked his broken ass up? maybe i'm crazy?

I was taking it easy on this ride. i haven't been on a bike for a few weeks, so just getting back in the swing of this. the ground today was tacky...very tacky. you had to pedal like crazy betweent he jumps to clear em! i tried pumping up the tires to like 40psi and it helped. i then started over shooting everything. it's all good.

I was supposed to ride blackrock with the guys this weekend, but boomer is not doing well. gotta get the dog healthy before i go ride.

10/12-10/16-no riding...hanging out in hawaii

well no riding this weekend. i'm missing the annual video premier put on by the fat tire farm. i heard from hack that it was crazy...he and larry fighting on the stage and in the street. hooligans that i hang out with!

This is the cooler that was filled with beer to bring with me. The smart ass baggage handler threw it and broke a beer bottle. the sweet thing was that he got beer all over him and had to smell like dried up beer the rest of his shift!

this is a new inter-island ferry that is new since the last time i was here. all the local environmental freaks are making a big stink about it....they probably don't care that they barge their garbage out into the ocean and just dump it. i would love to ride on this thing.

this video is from the Pali Lookout, it's one of the highest if not the highest viewing points for the public on oahu. It was windy as hell up there.

that's about all i've done so far. i'm heading out fishing today, so i should have some better footage to share with the world.

10-07-07-blackrock

dirk and i headed down to blackrock this morning with questionable weather waiting for us. as we drove down highway 47, there was no rain....to our surprise all the way there...no rain. we peddled to basic and stayed there for just a few minutes, then headed to the top. still no rain. trail conditions were great, no mud puddles anywhere! after a run run down sunday stroll, i headed over to the cliff drop. i've been having dreams about this thing for who knows how long. but once again, got to the top and my vag became not so loose! stayed up there and took like five runs at it...no go. next time. i'd like to follows somebody off it that has already hit it.

dirk and i did another run to the top of banzai to ET to basic and then rode the trail out of basic to the car. that was the only trail that had a bit of mud on it.

i sure look small at the top of this thing! next time!
