    My friend and I spent last weekend in St.George/Gooseberry. We had the pleasure of meeting up with Dave (emcil) and Gwen for a Fri. ride at Gooseberry. Sat. we rode Bear Claw Poppy and Grafton (more on these later). On Sunday morning before the drive home we hit up Zen. Its a pretty cool ride especially as a throw in on the last day.
    Its got plenty of technical climbing, lots of places to play around on, and great views. It was hot though. Route finding was a bit of an issue at the top. But in the end it was a enjoyable way to finish a tremendous weekend of riding.

    Sounds like a good time. That's some of the best riding around, imo. Would've been a little more fun on a new Terremoto, but then so's everything ;)

    Looking forward to the rest of the story.

    We'll never know, I can tell you the firebird helped me fly down Grafton though.
