Default RR: Return of the Jedi
Warning: this RR in non-O.C. centric.

I made a solo jaunt out to Sulli Ridge today. The wind and sun dried the trails to perfect grippyness. Sulli singles was re-dozed as a firebreak a short while back and the trail gnomes have been hard at work adding some nice features to the singletrack. It's still a work in progress but everything is fast, fun and do-able on a XC bike and fun on a jumping bike. The rains made a few new ruts but they'll fill in soon enough.

Pre-ride Peets! (this one is for Joe Truth)

Melting snowy San Gabes:

Top of the Jedi:

Rut-a-licious:

Entering the new S berms:

berm-a-licious:



Jump! The transition is somewhere down in Brentwood:

By the time I climbed back up to the car it got real purty out:

Beauty. Looks like a great ride and a fun trail, especially the berms.

Now if only it was in O.C., it'd be perfect!

killer sunset tonight

those berms are really new, I had been noticing all of the other new work lately.

I think I still prefer the old -straight up- climb line on the section below the tree rather than the new meandering one.

I think it needs a couple more meanders. I'm going to add another switch between the 2nd and 3rd. Wanna help?
