Mitch Riding The Yellow Brick Road More to come

Ride 2011 10 20

A rainy Day ride Chaz, Mitch Stephan from Germany and me went for a rainy day rip down Seymour Mountain all be it wet the trails were in good shape

Good to Be Home

We have been home for almost 3 weeks, It's sure good to be home.
Not that I didn't enjoy the fast flowy singletrack and epic views, the riding here is what I am familiar with, it is overall more technical . We also have roots and rocks in abundance. Don't get me wrong I would jump at the opportunity to travel to those destinations in the south and I will, I just love our riding, the change of seasons and sleeping in my own bed. I have about 22 gigs of go pro footage to sort through so stay tuned for A riding video of our trip. I apologize for my Hood River photos and my video got corrupt some how and didn't turn out, Hood River has become one of my most favorite destinations to ride, there is such a great riding vibe there and A great little tacoria. We have been getting in many laps all mountain riding I had one day at Whistler before it closed for the season it was A solo mission however I got many laps in. Steve McCabe is healing after his incident I wish him a speedy recovery. I am amazed at how many people follow the blog Thank You all and A Big Thanks to the Cove ( Chaz, A.T., Stuart and Daniel) You have expanded our boundaries, without You guys the riding that we have done in the 12 months could not have happened. Just Imagine what the future will bring.

Stay Tuned
Sincerely
Geezerhead
