OK, I decided to just turn this thread into the trip report.

It was a great ride. I didn't set my odometer, but I'm guessing we climbed around 4 miles, and went down about 1.5. The downhill is great, as you'll see in the video. This was my first time on the trail, and I think we all had a ball. I forgot to bring my still camera, and I doubt anybody else had one, so no pics for this one. :ne_nau:

Once again, I know several people out there who can't get YouTube at work, so I included a direct download of a higher resolution version. I'm looking out for you. :afro:

Here's the final Bobsled video.

Some how I never fall so perfectly. I always get my feet tangled in my frame and end with my head over the handle bars.

Good ride.

I wish that I could have gone riding with you guys. In the past the only stunt was riding over the last car. I would sure like to jump the other car, now that there is an approach and landing. Looks like everyone had a great time.

I'm still deciding if I should put that in the final.

This is just a little teaser video. Hopefully the final one will suck much less.

Do you want your climbing footage on there? :naughty:

Just the part where everyone waits 30 min for caburt to catch up...


What would be cool is if you got enough footage of everyone to do a freeze on them and put up their alias. Maybe that would be better left for another ride.

Yeah, I'm sure my climbing would be an inspiration to all. 30 min? Ouch. I was just making sure no one was left behind :)

Now that's just cruel starting the video with the fall. Sure makes for great entertainment though.

Nice video, that trail looks SWEET. How many times did you guys go down it, or is that all one lap?

Sombeech
06-22-2007, 07:01 AM
Just once. I'd like to climb the short route and try it a couple of times in one night though.
