Every time I first glance at this thread after being away for awhile,  I read it as "the bikini thread", only to end up disappointed. 



Alas.

Ffs, if one more person says that... banghead.gif

Glad to hear you're back on the bike. If you're not in the southern hemisphere, hopefully the winter will hold off a bit so you can get some miles in.

 

bolt.gif at that vid you posted. I attacked some trails in my younger days, but never anything like that, and never any acrobatics on the rare occasions I was airborne. bolt.gif I was always happy just to stay in control and not eat too much dirt. smile.gif

laugh.gif its more dusty than muddy. a lot of the creeks are dry now.

 

perfect day, blue sky, 70 degrees, colors going off here in the mtns of western NC.

 

could not be happier after three days of cautious riding. my leg feels great and even better my ankle was cracking like crazy before I started riding and now its seems to crack less.

It was actually tough to get out today, as I was burned out by a week of work and demoralized by several days of rainy weather at the start of the week, but I made myself go out, and felt good after about 5 miles.

way to go! sometimes the toughest part of a ride can be just getting out the door. particulary if you are riding solo.
