The Where: Backbone to Corral Canyon
Riders: Joe (Rockslide), N4th (Nathan),Jenkssocal (Rich), Musicmaker (FJ), Alrick, Metalmtbr (Dennis)
Ride time: 8:30a - 1:00p
Trail Conditions: Little bit of everything. Plenty of climbs, hard packed singletrack, rock gardens, fast downhills. One of the best trails in the Santa Monica mountains by far.
Weather: Mid-60's throughout the ride. Very brisk.
Notes: We loved this trail so much that we wanted to come back with the rest of the crue. We invited Joe back (he drives far, too!), Nath, Rich, and Alrich would join us this time. Jeffo was rehearsing for a gig he's doing on 12/26 (opening for Michael Schenker group) and DC had out of town visitors. We were in for a treat this go around as we would be recording our ride with my new GoPro HD camera. I included a special treat for all of you at the end of this RR. It's what we do
The Crue getting restless and circling. Check out Joe's awesome DH bike!
FJ and Nath attending to rim issues on FJ's Specialized XC
Foggy mountain top
Rock Garden traffic jam
A quick pit stop before dropping into the saddle
House on the hillside (must be nice)
A view of our trail path from top of the hill (follow the yellow and orange tree tops)
Boy band poses
Tired of Nath's boy band posing, I give him a good smack upside the head
No more rim problems!! I remind FJ we're on a tight schedule
Rocky path
D'OH!! Nath collides with Alrick
Alrick hops the ledge
Joe nails it on his Ironhorse
FJ making it look easy
At Corral Canyon, Nath takes time to build a HUGE rock monument...
Alrick looks in awe at this incredible feat of construction...
Oh..ummm, how did that photo get in there. :?: Hehe...
Purdy Meadow
One last push to the top
Trail congestion
Back at the TH
And finally...with about 3 sec's of video I had on hand I had to stretch, the Ascendication Crue's bonus video for your >>entertainment enjoyment<<. Break it down!!
