Default Dell jumping the Luge gap

Today my buddy Jason and I did the SST and down the Luge. On my way up, I was talking with a 17 year old beginner biker about the great biker community when 4 guys in a row rode by and said: Hi Serge! the kid was very impressed

It was the crew from SocalTrailRiders. Dell and the guys. I apologize, I am bad with the names, I was introduced before but forgot the names. I know Pat's name because he told me today. All of you knew my name, it's embarrassing.

Anyway, We all went down the Luge together and Dell decided to jump the gap. I had my camera, so here are the pictures. Jason took some video of the jump, I will post it when I get it.

Glad to see you nail it this Dell!
And the intensity in your mug on the pre-jump shot is great!

Nice expression on Dell, that's just great! As von skipp would say, "keep it INTENSE."

Serge, it was cool running into you today. Great shots, I'm the guy that was on the trans blue Heckler, on the left side of the pic of Dale sizing up the gap.

PROPPS to Dale for hitting the gap jump, I dunno why, I just wasn't up to it today, one day I'll try it. (i think)

Dell, looks like you landed a bit straighter this time.

What trails did you guys ride today? Old Camp?

Yes Dell, good job on the jump! The landing had us a bit worried but you pulled it off anyway

Serge, I was the guy on the black Turner "burning" up the climbs....I think you have always seen me riding my 6 Pack at Aliso so I'll let it slide you forgot my name this time

Thanks for the pics, Serge. Good seeing you today, and meeting Jason.

Didn't realize you snapped a pre-jump photo. Have always had a pretty goofy "huck face," but before the fact? Oh my. Some serious contemplation going on there. Prior wipeout will do that, I guess...

Gap: 1, Me: 1. It's all good.

Missed you too, Craigger. Looks like you guys had a blast. We'll have to do that one again soon.

Serge had parked his bike right where you were on Thursday. I mentioned that might not be the best place, given my leftward leanings...
