Look Who's Riding


Seven riders showed up for Thursday's ride and guess who was in the mix? None other than Brent Watkinson. It was sure good to see him and even better to see him back on his mountain bike. Welcome back Brent, hope the leg continues to improve.
We perspired our way up Malde Creek road to the NEW start to Tamarac Trail. The trails crew built a great piece of single track that avoids the two rocky fire road climbs that you had to do before. Then we made our way down the trail to the junction of Dukabor Draw. This a fun trail. You can even get the odd bit of air here and there. Take a look at this picture of Al Santano. It looks like I photoshopped him into the picture BUT NO just a cheap camera and a bad photographer and he really did get good air(more than six inches is good for me).
Finished off the ride by going down the old Dukabor Draw up track to the double track and down to Malde Creek road followed by a screaming ramble down the rail grade trying to catch the birthday boy Dave Shannon who was in a hurry to get home to his cake. Check out his grin, sure is happy for a guy getting a year older. That's what being a member of the Holy Wow Gang can do for you.
