I’m pretty sure that would have been a tornado if it was flat here.  Yet another reason to love the mountains.

Alright, another youth ride.  This time with rain.  This guy is named Saul (Sol…get it?).  Oh the irony…

Mason doing a drift test on some of the rock.  We did an extra long line tonight trying to keep things low angle.  Unlike riding on the coast, the rock here gets really slick in the rain.

You kind of have to experience to see what I mean.

OK, it was another great lap.   We now finish off with a session on the Redemption Stepup, as is tradition.

Rollin’ on 24s in that last one.  June is the best riding month of the year in the Interior.  Time to drop a gear and pin it!

Youth Ride #2

Ride #2 is done.  We took a couple of minutes at the rock face on Rusty for a few guys to try it out.

I think they figured it out.

Now we just need to work on getting some of them to pull off the trail when they stop, and we should be able to get into some harder trails soon.

We at least bought some good trail karma tonight, as the gang helped pull a decent sized tree out of the way that had fallen on Squirrel. Nice job, boys!
