Rays Indoor Park (pics bottom of page) is an “epic,” (imba link) but Mohican isn’t…yet… http://www.geoladders.com/show_route.php?route=35130 I had to skip two rides in Indiana due to rain(Landahl and Brown County), and shot for a ride in Ohio I hadn’t planned on doing, but was quite thankful to have experienced. It also brought me within an […]

imba trail link my trip: http://www.geoladders.com/show_route.php?route=9525 Another gem laid out by the USFS, although it appears this trail was built pre half-rule, and there are some problem sections where the trail is now a stream and needs to be debermed and healed with some grade reversals.

I was sorry to see my Seven rig go, but I think I can live with this…a shot before all the logos/graphics are gone. I earned this from SDMBA and Dave Turner from many months of hard work with SDMBA. The only bike I have rented…for a 2012 trip to PA. I’ll miss my Seven…
The plan…hit as many “Epics” and the like as possible on my way East (and my way back West (to be continued)): A: leave this town…with a heavy and light heart… B: Hurricane Cliffs, UT– “edge of the Colorado Plateau and the Great Basin. Grand mesas, vertical rock formations, and deep canyons combine with extinct
