New ride with old Friends

HANGING OUT BY A RIVER WITH OLD FRIENDS...A MEMORY FOR LIFE!

The early 90's mountain bike crew: CJ, Adam & Matt Krop with Chris Scott

Even though I have had my Salsa Horsethief for over a month I finally have it set up and riding perfectly. With the addition of my new Industry Nine wheels and Shimano brakes the Thief is dialed! No better place to test the updated Horsethief then Lookout Mountain and Timber Ridge. No better crew to ride these trails with then your buddies who you first explored this forest with over 20 years ago.

It is always a treat to showcase the work on Lookout, the reroute of 6 years ago has now blended perfectly with the old ridge line sections. I remember riding this trail the first time with Adam Krop in 93', except we did it "backwards" in the rain.  Lookout is usually enough to satisfy most folks but yesterday's crew wanted to hit some old school trails so we ascended up Sandsprings to Timber Ridge in the hottest of conditions. The down hill on Wolfe Ridge was rolling fast even with the summer growth that is coming in from every side.

A bear was hungry.

This might be the last time riding Wolfe in it's current state, the next phase of improvements is about to start next week.  More to follow soon!

Enjoy the summer heat with good friends!
