Glad to here you had fun even with ALL the hiking.
Sure did. Got up the mountain last night and everything I used to think was 'steep' is now completely rideable. Amazing how much you progress when you ride a freaking scary ass trail
man... after my first real taste of dh this past wednesday @ blue mountain, i'm yearning for a trip out to bc to hit up whistler. i rode from 11-6 with one short break for lunch. only got in about 15-20 runs, but that's cause i rode most of the trails really slow (since it was my first time on any of those trails) and rode a lot of the easier trails which weren't too close to the lift.
i'm still recovering from the beating my body took... even with 5" in the front and back, i got rocked. whoever says that dh isn't physically demanding is either superman or someone who doesn't know what the heck he's talking about, heh.
i'll try to post a write up of my first dh experience when i get the time. right now, it's time to rest and reflect on a great day of fun riding.
peace y'all.
I was just back home, I give you a lot of credit for riding in the shyte conditions you did. The humidity knocked me out just sitting around, I couldn't imagine actually riding in it, especially in armour
I wanted to hit up blue but didn't have a chance, got really busy.
I have a 6x6 and would love some more on the more tech trails. Heck even a higher quality fork would be nice
