Photos from your rides.

I have a few rides on this now. I am LOVING it. Likely the best MTB I've ever owned. Coming from a SC Bronson. This bike is so much better suited to my riding style. Cannot wait to ride it again and again and again ad nauseum (not that I'll ever tire of this rig).

Big thanks to Kirk007 for hooking me up!




Not sure what brought this bridge down, but it was scary to see. I certainly wouldn't have wanted to be on the bridge when it let go!

Peak2Peak xc race

An incredibly beautiful day in northern Michigan today. It's snowed some years, today it's pushing 70. Perfect fall racing weather.

Perfect day in NJ but riding with fast friends I only managed one photo. This has been one of the most colorful Falls in a number of years.

Agree. What is amazing/interesting to me is how different it is in pockets of the state. Maybe it has to do with rainfall totals this year and how much moisture an area got?

Anyway, todays route is heavily influenced by merckxman, and it did not disappoint!

Those are gorgeous shots Angry! Thanks for sharing. So much better than the rain (soon to be snow) I'm seeing here today.
