Mountain Bike Front Brake Report for Oct. 26th and Oct 27th, since time is in slow mode for me these days get on the bike and chase the munchies away, the first day, I was starting to drink tecate and eat brownies so I called BR and asked if he had riden yet, he said YUP, 20 plus miles up in Park City. Dang it missed that crew. So went for my own ride up Bonneville shoreline and across to Dry Creek. Not sure when I rode this section of trail last, maybe spring time, but I reeled in 3 guys on heavy bikes and cleared a section that is rocky that I usually hike through. Made it to the top and decided to ride to BOBSLED, and check out the first entrance to see the status. The first time I dropped into this part, there was a foot of mud and water and we rode, hiked, launched into trees and laughed our way down. This time just loose dirt and ruts, I hiked the top part but rode the rest, squealing as usual. Oh, and made the last climb out as well. So rode better than I had remembered, and good thing because BR wanted to ride the same thing the next day. So at 3, I rode to his house found out he invited the single speed crusher king, and I became intimidated. "oh man I didn't know what I signed up for". But they were great with me, total mtn biking gents and we had a great ride. We did the same but totally different route if that's possible. We really pushed the pace all the way to the mouth of Dry Creek, riding up Sunnyside, Zoo, Bo Sho, to Tartula Traverse. They coached me to get into middle ring more which worked on a few of the short hills. I rode sections that I usually don't and felt on my game for the most part, and being pushed to a whole level as well. Single King left for home early and BR and I rode Dry Creek to Bobsled, That was FUN! I was able to ride the top section with like 6 guys up top chillen waiting to make runs, I just bounced in and just about biffed but didn't care and got back in line and finished out the rolling side burms, your stomach just feels like a roller coaster through the tight turns and drops, and BR even went behind me and did loops and drops behind me but didn't push my pace, really sweet. We then rode through the secret cemetary street return. I jumped some curbs as well, and rode through the brush to arrive at the park for the quick drops. Laughing the whole time!
It is good for me to post the feelings are coming back to how I felt while riding, in fact I am about to go out and get the dogs out of the house and get some exercise!
