    Wow hat a pretty quick, at that speed one mistake you are onto disability instead of unemployment. Wait can you claim disability if you never worked?

    If you're talking about the dude at 30 seconds, he was completely off the trail. Not in the way at all. :?:

    Nice run Scotty - I wanted to see you hit Chutes too in one continuous shot! Too fun!

    May have to go for it tomorrow... been absent from the trails for all of finals week and I'm itching to get back out. Did two rides today, one morning and one night with some new bike lights :)

    Ride at whatever speed you're comfortable with :) Comfort with the trail will come with time. And nobody actually cares about Strava times. I just do it because it's fun.

    Me too! I am constantly stravaing for KoMs both up and down the hills, but I never seem to get even a personal record. What gives? :?:


    Oh - you have to download an app? And sign up? And turn on your device when you ride? n/m #-o i'll just have to continue riding for fun and not prove anything to anyone. GASP!!!!!!
