Lotsa rocks. Very little flowy stuff. Scant on vert.
Updownupdownupdownupdown. Bits of high speed mixed with slow tech. Is an aquired taste.
But fantastic if you like that sort of thing.

Love seeing all the kid stoke! We don't have kids of our own, but gobs of nieces and nephews. Vicarious living or what have you.That truly is "growing the sport" and is most excellent to see!

I have shots at the top. I have shots the bottom. I keep missing with the timer of a shot in the middle. It's really not as bad though as it looks. That angle makes it look uglier. I'm also coming...

Fuck. I miss west.

My wife calls this a dinosaur valley. As in, when all the people are gone at night, you know the dinosaurs come out. ...

Tweaking the fit/feel of the new fat. Old parts/new frame. Me likey. Got a 27.5+ wheelset and 2.8-ish tires coming for summer use, and am selling off the skinny hardtail.

That looks nice!
