I remember the first ride at Nass(with the paper directions) doing the main loop and probably walking my bike more than I rode it

I don't know if we walked more than rode on that ride, but we did a fair amount more walking. We also did a LOT more stopping, mostly to try and figure out where we were going though. I still remember sitting atop that short little washed out downhill that you first encounter in the cemetery twisty area, the three of us debating the best line to get down it. :lol:

Me being a gaper

Very good point.

Ok, how about this one then, by us going that way, it puts us in a better alignment to hit the huge jump with a lot more speed, therefore giving us the extra momentum to hit the first rock in the garden and launch over the rest:wink:

Actually, your right, we're just a bunch of ladies.:razz:

Nice...I'm glad you guys are riding that p path to the riders right of that downhill...Because of you, now that hill is climbable in the reverse direction. I made it the last couple times only because of your path...it's nearly impossible if you ride through the guts of the loose rutted out part of the hill. BUT, I always ride the played out section when going downhill. Save the p path for when you come the other way.
