Need for Speed

Got to go ridin with Rusty and Allyn yesterday.  We let Allyn lead on Corby North and he was flyin... so I'd say he's definitely getting back into his mtb groove after a 5 year break.  Of course that got Rusty and I all excited so we finished the ride by blasting through Corby South with Rusty leading the way.  He was smokin as well... so much that I began to question his sanity.  He was going so fast through one of the down hill turns that all of a sudden I just saw his front wheel slide from under him and he and the bike went tumblin.  When I came upon him and asked if he was alright, he was already getting back on and with a BIG grin on his face simply said... "yeah, I LOVE to go fast!"
So we all really enjoy flyin through trails and all three agree that Corby North is our favorite place to do so in the woods!
For those of you whom also like flyin, don't forget that MWSU has those wood chip trails.... and right now they are in excellent conditions... cause they haven't put down a new layer of the chips yet.  I rode the loop today... and keep beating my personal best.

Rusty,
Quit riding over on the dark side with those sissy little wheels and all and maybe that would not have happened...

You know what they say: "If you ain't crashin', you ain't ridin' hard enough." I still haven't figured out who "they" is...

Anyway, I think my little crash had more to do with the 15-year-old tire I'm running on the front...probably ought to look into some new rubber.

Just checked the weather forecast and it's supposed to be sunny and 63 degrees at 6PM tomorrow. I'll be at Corby with my "sissy wheels" if any of you kids with Big Wheels want to come out and play...
