Today's Ride

Re:

Looks like a great way to get to work, Mike. Today-Saturday-Hotter, about 80 F. - So we rode up the lower slopes of Mt. Tam about 900' and to a cool shady spot to hang out before the ride back down to town...

Re:

Today-Monday-Didn't ride today, had a bunch of errands to do-too hot anyway, 88 F. BUT- I did get this cool old Fisher Downhill MTB dropped off at my place today to look after. It's an older Downhill MTB that has a special paint job by Painter/Drummer Prairie Prince ( The Tubes, Todd Rundgren, Journey to name a few) He hand painted this bike for Gary Fisher and every bluebird is slightly different, with a fade from white to Yellow on the background. It's got 8 inches of travel and weighs a ton! However, I'm thinking it would be cool to push it up Repack and bomb back down again on it- I'll keep you posted... :)

Re:

Funky!

I think you'll be looking at getting close to the record on that rig, Pat!

I was thinking of doing a funky paint job on one of my Fishers

Re:

Went out yesterday evening with some locals and it was awesomely fast paced and dry, no pics I'm afraid. I went out today though on my new kirk and tbh shouldn't have, bonked 30 mins in due to not listening to my body saying rest.....buggered.

Still good though and managed a pic though.

 
Re:

Had a bimble about with mates in Inverness, ended at the new university campus before going our separate ways.

Weird clouds, which I didn't get any great shots of as I had left an old lens on the camera, and only had a fifty with me that was anything like sharp.
