Riding!!!!

Yes, the riding has been excellent this Summer.....and, I am back on the trail and off the reserve list. Ripping the trails with a new found appreciation for my health and fitness. Surgery really puts everything into perspective! First rugged ride after getting back from Utah....Blue Mountain with Sam, Kevin, and Eric. One of the more punishing rides I've ever experienced....pure brutality. It rained right before we got there and Kevin decided we were climbing up the backside for 3 miles of technical, slippery singletrack to get warmed up. Wow! After that one....back on the Spot for singlespeed mania on many rides including Jeremy's birthday ride with the Sos at East Setauket. Also, pre-riding the Dark Horse 40 course at Stewart MTA with Sam, Emily, and Ari! Ari's first big ride on his new Cannondale Flash Carbon 29er. He killed it and was smiling for hours :) JC and I blasted out to Glacier Ridge for a SS 29er session with the Spot and his Voodoo Dambala for some fun and the twists never seem to end. My movie is awesome! More to come...
