Takin it Back

This weekend was great. It was great to be out at Grant with the guys working ourselves over and calling it progression. I have a new combo; fire-hydrant to half bar switch to half-hike turbine. It is by far the most serious link I have tried and I am kinda stoked that I have rolled it at all. It is definately something I will pull soon, if I can get some hours in on it. After everyone left, Joe and I hung out for several hours. It was very cool. It reminded me of the first time I spent the night with Joe, well over ten years ago. Riding, talking and riding some more. Joe has always been one of my heroes simply because he has a good vibe. The session at Grant, in the nipple-hardening cold was one of the most mellow sessions I can remember. This weekend showed me that the core of why I ride ( and why Joe rides) has not changed at all. And I'm glad.
