Head Over Heels Down the Hill


Joel and I had a good time in the woods today mt. biking. We got some good pics and some video. I am sure J-man will be working on that and you'll see his handy work soon. I think we did 14 miles. We were out for 2.5 hours or so, maybe a little longer. We did stop to take some pics and to just take in the scenery. It was a little muddy but really not as bad as we had expected. I will say, we were dirty when we were done though. I only crashed one time but it was a good one. I was hitting dips and catch some air and on the 3rd or 4th dip I went airborne and landed off the trail. I went down on my right hip, slid about 6 ft or so then went head over heals down the hill a ways. I think I knocked the wind out of myself but after that cleared I was ok. I don't think Joel was on the ground at all today. He was a little more clean than I was. The wind was pretty nasty in the parking lot and when we would crest the mountain top but other than that it wasn't a factor for us. The coldest part of the day was at the car wash in Hollidaysburg. We stopped there on Blair St. to wash our bikes off. They definitely needed it. All and all our 5-6 hour adventure was tons of fun. As we rode home in J-man's Jeep we were planning our event for next week. We are hopping to get a few more guys to go with us. Adam, Cory, this means you.
