    For my lunch break I decided to go check out the Lunada Bay Canyon in Palos Verdes. After pushing all the way up the damn thing I get to take a ride over the bars and into some conveniently placed rocks marking the trail, not more that 30 feet into the ride. Maybe I was going to slow. I still have no idea what I hit. I think it was a gnome that grabbed my front tire. Possibly an elf, but I think that gnomes are smaller and would be able to pull this kind of thing off easier. The ride was pretty lame except for one smooth section with a few bumps and a very steep, off camber fire road section at the bottom. As I walked back into work I was greeted with a new nickname... "Crash" Great. :clap:

    I like the way your floor matchs your shoes.















    It was the fashion gnomes that got you
