I wanted to show a buddy of mine this trail since he lives pretty close by and it makes for a good xc ride. We didn't stop much and i did not take many pics on the trail. We did stop at the pump track under the bridge by the park. However i'm a moron and accidently deleted all the pump track pics and video

the first cement climb up we spotted the carcass of a dog? that was pretty gnarly to see right away in on the ride. i was able to clean all the climbs and even lead on a few of them... this isn't a big deal to you fast bubbs, but my buddy is a pretty fast rider so it was weird having to wait for him at the top of the hill

the plants are starting to get really tall and thick down on the valley areas of the trail so it was pretty wild riding through there w/o being able to see anything under the plants. my friend commented how it must suck to be riding a rigid bike, but it was actually pretty smooth.. i think i may need to get a riser bar since a lot of my weight is on my wrists with a flat bar.

this pic is one of my favs for sure

You should have taken the rigid into the skate park. Never mind, that would be wrong. You would ruin it for everybody else and give mountain bikers a bad name.

All I know is poaching skate parks is bad.
