yesterday we decided to do the monarch crest trail after 3 days of hard racing. monarch crest is pretty awesome, you have a van shuttle you up to 12,000 feet, and then do a point to point ride. one would think if you are at 12,000 ft it would be all downhill. well, i thought that would be the case, but damn there was a lot of climbing. the trail itself is awesome, it is about 30 miles of sweet as butter
single track and about 5 miles of fire roads.

the gang:
timmy,
lauren,
missy t,
anne, c-ray,
amy d,
jon, and me.

the kids plug away at some of the high altitude climbing.
jon and i getting in a scenic pic.
these two were
rockin' they rode so fast both up and downhill. tough girl little
amy d. is pro mountain biker caliber. you heard it here first. (she did flat 3 times though, so she may need to work on her tire pressure and bike up keep)

cool shot of
anne descending into the lush forest.
c-ray drinks some canned pimpjuice, it looked like bottled radiator fluid, and tasted like crap, but it made her a pimp.

it was quite a muddy/wet ride.
missy faces her bottom into the wind to help dry off her backside.
c-ray has this little pink-haired freak rubber banded to the back of her seat tube.
by the end of the ride the little freak had a full body mud mask. it's skin is so fresh and smooth now.
