The irony is.....I'm not waiting for anything or anyone. I refuse to let life pass me by while waiting for something to happen. There are constant reminders every day. I'm driving my life....and the riding keeps me sane, and fit. I am a crusher. One of many....
We had an awesome ride over at the infamous Allamuchy trail in NJ. Home of the legendary 24 hour race that destroyed many riders and bikes over the years. First stop was Marty's shop in Randolph, NJ to meet up with Jesse. This was my first visit to the shop and it's really nice! Ari and I had been trying to hook up a ride with Jesse for quite awhile and we got it on this October day as we raced to beat the rain. Jesse's pal and coworker John met us at the trail and so did Kevin. In the parking lot before the ride John announced that he had looked up the race scores and realized that he's ranked number one in the country for DH in his age group and category. Scary!!! He led us through a ripping ride in Allamuchy!! He knows it like few others.... We beat the rain for the first 2 hours and then it began to fall and get through the trees to the trails and us. Slippery....yes. Killer ride! Thank you Jesse and John!
Snow White (Julie) and 5 dwarves hit the trail at Blue Mountain in Peekskill for some destruction and we got what we asked for. Abuse on every level. Blue is the jam. Kevin got hurt on a big roller on "My Favorite Trail" near the end of the ride. He rode out with one leg....Ouch! Get better soon Buddy!
Life goes on and the rides continue.....
I swear I'm gonna get some software and edit some videos.....really.
