A few inspiring links


I added a couple of my favorite inspirations to the sidebar of this blog. Scroll down and you'll see the section of links on the right.
In other news, the weather is starting to warm up in the Springs, and so is the riding. Yesterday I broke out of the cross country groove and did shuttled downhill runs on a big bike. BRAAP! (that's a motorcycle noise for those of you who aren't familiar with Lee McCormack). I was incredibly stoked. Four runs down the local DH (downhill) favorite, I35, and we started to get a little sloppy on handling, calling it quits for the day. But when I got home I was feeling great from all the DH, so I headed out on my new XC rig for a second ride. The highlight? Finally nailing this drop in Red Rocks park that I've chickened out on every ride in the past. SWEET. Hooray for big DH bikes and body armor for building confidence!
