    So a full video report is in the works, but I had to get a couple teasers up.
    Summit is in great shape with lots of new features.

    Ha! The best part of the first one is seeing your shadow go flying OTB. Awesomeness, Craig.

    Easy for you to say. I'm in bed totally unwilling to move after 50-50ing a step down road gap at Plattekill yesterday. No serious damage (to me, rear wheel is borked) but pretty much everything hurts.

    Nice vids.

    Crashes keep us humble... just look at Maxwell, he's one of the humblest riders I know. ;)

    YEAH!!! That deserves it's own post!
    Your roll-over into the bushes was classic. That face plant you almost took into the rocks had me jumping from my chair. Temps in SB must have been bitchen this weekend. Looks like you had a great time.
    What was total ride time on that trail?

    Thanks for posting!

    That bushes wasn't flat! #-oI would have ended up at the trail below it if my foot wasn't tangled on my rear triangle. It stopped me from falling :lol: And I may not have face planted on the rock but my chest took a hit! not too bad, not feeling any pain right now :lol: I couldn't tell the exact time since we made a lot of stops. it was too rocky that we had to rest, our legs and arms were just pumped and it was hot. not including we kindda got lost at the bottom part, :beer: overall, it was a great time. we had some Chinese food after while two tables away was a MILF breastfeeding in Public.... :bang::bang::bang::bang:

    Tunnel rocks we shuttled it and cold springs 4 times in a row and literally my hands were smoked the 4th time....

    Looks like the guy in the beginning is holding you up which on Tunnel theres 1 way to ride it...

    Lay back and FAST get ontop of the rocks and DO NOT slow down........ Ride it like a moto and nut up, literally speed makes it alot better.... Nice video BTW the helmet cam stayed damn steady thats impressive.

    Thanks for taking time to record it.......:beer:

    Drop D,

    Despite all those crashes, you still were able to stop and greet those hikers with "Have a good day!" :beer:

    Now, I'm scared to ride with you guys :-k

    There's a simple fix to that chatter, but I don't want to hijack this thread ;)

    lol we're not competing, it's all about having fun. Our pace is the same pace as the slowest rider, slowest or weakest rider rides in the middle in case anything bad happens there's a sweeper behind him :wave:
