That looked like a lot of fun, the scenery and the weather looked fantastic.
Now...for the critique: Coasting down a paved hill is always fun, love to see the vid of you guys grinding your way back up. For that run you truly should have slick tires, you really don't need mtn knobbies at all, probably makes unnecessary noise and slows you down.
Glad to see that in the last minute you guys finally hit a bit of dirt, I was afraid that the only off-road dirt trail would have been that excursion around the gate at 5:02 thru 5:15..>>ribbing ya<<
A little friendly elbowing in the ribs, but I must admit that I would love to fly down that road, I'd probably do it on a cruiser tho.
I have those same Pearl Izumi shoes, sweet hike-a-bike shoes for the summer.

Hi Moozh,
Actually the weather was not fantastic that day, it's a bit cloudy....view would be even more beautiful if it's clear.
We are going to hit the dirt that day but we decided to go up to the peak first to shoot with our GoPro HD. This place has a lot of trails to choose from. However, when we get to the bottom of the peak...about to enter the trail, my GoPro cam is full. Disappointing but it was a great ride in the end....just without the Video. That's why i put "More to come" in the end of the video. I will definitely post video of these trail on our next visit. We have a few video....pls have a look when you have time.
