Orange Bike Report

After another ride on the AIR, I began to come to terms with the new frame size. While conditions were not great, we do have a little secret stash that drains well, and generally is 100% better than most other trails after 2 days of torrential downpours.
We had no electricity for over 4 hours yesterday because of a nasty little squall that whipped up though the mountains here. Lots of lightning, fun to watch in the garage with a beer.
It rained all night, and most of the morning, but this little stash holds up well. Don't ask me where it is, I can't tell you...
We got back just before dark, so the only picture that got taken is a dirty garage shot.


I do like it though. It is making me re-evaluate the way I ride, which is good. One of the main reasons I like to change my setup as often as I do, is because I am looking for the "perfect setup". I'm lucky in that I get to ride a bunch of different stuff. While I may never actually get it crammed into one bike, I always get it to 90%, which is pretty darn good. This bike likes to go fast. I even caught air with it. I know it may sound impossible, because 29ers can't corner or catch air, but it's true!
