time to brag, post your favorite pic of yourself on the trails.

[guero]

please post ONE favorite shot of yourself riding if you have one. explain what it is that you like about it and the location and the photographer.

here is mine. i did a hint of photoshop work, only altering the color of this shot taken by neil (1x1clyde). shot was taken at the top play area at santiago oaks. i absolutely love the desolate feel of the shot, the scorched terra firma and the hazy hills in the background give it an almost unearthlike feel. thanks neil!

The following picture was taken in Mammoth this past August by Sprockethead!

What makes the picture special to me? 1) It reminds me of the good times the mountain has shown us in the past 2) Reminds me of my friends (Sprockethead, Slowspokes and Ahimanic) 3) Reminds me how much I TRULY enjoy freeriding 4) Reminds me that life is not all about--- work.. work.. work. 5) It was the only flattering photo anyone has "bothered" posting of me!

I don't have any good pics.

That's an easy one. This is last year on the Kessel Run trail in Fruita. The trail snakes downhill, criss-crossing and winding through a ravine created by 2 parallel ridges, each ridge only about 10-15 feet high. It drops maybe 100 feet in 2-3 miles.

It was my first time in Fruita and my first trip down Kessel Run. That first run down, is without a doubt the most fun I have ever had on a bike. It's the kind of thing where it's always fun, but it will never be as fun as the first time. It brought such a smile to my face I was actually laughing at the bottom. I love it because everytime I look at it, I am instantly taken back to that time and space and remember what an effing blast it was.

A friend of mine set up ahead of time and snapped the pic.

Neil took some pics of me a while back that I think are nice. I think they are special to me because Neil is special to me

This is one of my favs. IT was taken at the Georgia Intl Horse Park - site of the first Olympic MTB race in 1996. It is my lunch loop as it's only 4 miles from my office.

This pic is from a fast, swoopy section that you can boost over a rooty drop and rocket back up the following climb.



These pics are from my favorite place to ride - Pisgah Natl Forest.

One of my favorites was taken on a "Noble" adventure put on by J+A. It's not me riding, but the fun of riding and hanging out with friends.

One of the best days on a bike was the last day of the 7 day Durango to Moab bike trip taken overlooking Castle Valley... an incredible day and place.

Worst day was the result of falling 70 feet down a cliff on the Strawberry Peak Trail several years back. It's the one trail Nancy won't let me ride!

Finally, best day off the bike was helping to collect 135 bikes in one day and delivering them to several local children's charities. I'll never forget the looks on the kids faces...

You could say that biking has given me so much... good, bad and in between... just like life.
