Enjoy!

Video is awesome. I can do without staring at Brian's ass, though.

I am glad he edited out me checking 10 time to make sure I had no crack showing or my underwear wasn't riding up.

Maybe now and then. It's tough to condense all that footage. With skiing, I can be selective with what footage I take and the scene file size tends to be smaller and more manageable. While riding, you kinda have to turn it on and let it roll. I found myself trying to start and stop mid-ride, and in addition to being very unsafe, it kinda disrupts the flow of the ride. I'll do a few more though; probably larger gatherings.

Thanks and yeah, thanks on the bridge kudos. I still hate them, but I've found if I focus on the trail just beyond the end of the bridge, I'm okay. I actually crossed the little one right before 69 and made the small climb beyond it. Nate must think I'm a tool when I rejoice over clearing silly stuff like that.

BTW, nobody mentioned the "hessians" yet. That's the term the Crankfire guys use for dirtbikers. I think it's hilarious.

I was pissed that I didn't make that short climb after the bridge this time.

To be honest I forgot about them. Next to the stinky exhaust the worst part about them was waiting for the one guy get his stalled rig started so that they could get ahead of us. From what I saw they were relatively light on the trail damage at least.

Agreed, especially considering how wet it was.

Were there 2 of them? They passed me as I got to the car and then ripped down the fire road. They go on the trial you guys were riding?
