Now that my 6 weeks is up it's time to start pushing the limits again! Lift serve days are non-stop fun. You get all the thrills and don't have to do any of the work! My friend at
Stein Eriksen hooked us up with the
Rocky Mountain Slayer- a free ride bike with a slack headtube and crazy travel (at least compared to my xc bikes!). These bikes are meant to be ridden with the seats really low so you can turn the bike more aggressively. I end up feeling like a teenage trouble maker, rollin' around in my baggy shorts and getting air (not much in reality) and I love it!
Katherine and
Chrispy took all the gnarly lines, I was a bit more conservative (this is my 3rd time on dirt since my crash). Hopefully I can hit the lifts at least once a week throughout August and get some of the better lines dialed in!
