German Freeride — Day IV

Ahhhh, back to Powers Creek. Here’s Dirty Dave riding one of his crazy creations.

And here’s the Speedometer dropping in. The other guys in the crew were really starting to click here.

…and here.

Also Skinny Man, was getting some and really laying the foundation for a things to come later in the trip. I can’t believe that his bike help up to the abuse it got on this tour. Check that thing out. 5″ little hit bike, second hand and bought just for the trip.

Well, I guess things were giong just a little bit too good. It’s always wisest to look before you leap. Let this be warning to all of you Dainese believers out there. They are great for scrapes and cuts, but not so good when it comes to more serious injuries. Don’t think you’re invincible or this could happen to you….

…cause man, you know that’s going to hurt later (let alone the four ribs just below that).

Bummer dude. Hope you heal up soon.

FreeRideSouth — Part III

Who wants a new Cove DH bike?

Cypress today. Boombatz gets pic of the day for this line. You might recognise it from an IRC ad from recent bike mags.

We ran into a few celebs today. James Doerfling (up and comer if you haven’t heard of him yet), Chris Glew, and Dylan Treemblay were hanging out at the top of SexBoy.

…and another blurry late aftrenoon shot to leave off with. Not so many pics today, just riding. Some things aren’t meant to be shared.

Hello Stephen from Oxfordshire. First time to the North Shore then? Very well, hang on…..

We did a mostly XC day today, with some hucks thrown in for good measure.

The “other” other side of Seymour.

Huck #1….too high.

Huck #2….too low.

Awww, forget it, lets just pedal.

Or we could just check out the sexy bike. Late 40’s vintage, recently restored.

Cherry….
