  1. Me, Jamey, John, Don and new Muni rider Justin did a great "trifecta" of
    trails at Aliso woods, including 5 oaks--hardcore DH with killer tech
    sections, Rockit and Lynx, and the most challenging of 'em
    all..."Stairstepper!"

    This sucker is so bad ass that 99% of exp. mtbr's won't get near it!
    100% rock with 7' ledgies, and steep, ::steep::, STEEP!

    So I thought I'd try to roll one of these sections, at John's urging,
    so I went for it and immediately got bucked off so abruptly and with so
    much forward momentum, I couldn't land on my feet! :eek:

    I immediately went into a freefall tumble down the steep, bumpy rock. I
    caught air and hit the next rock with my craks totally vertical and the
    tire just "stuck" and off I went...er..FLEW! Below is the result.
    (Looks worse in person)
    Some other bruises lower down (not shown haha!) but luckily nothing
    broken! I was able to jump right back up to my feet, prompting John to
    say, "nice recovery dude!"

    Although they all knew it was a BAD fall!😄 It's now been a couple
    hours since and I don't feel to bad, so I can't wait to go back and
    nail it next time haha!:p

    John & Jamey should have some cool action stills up in a while!

  2. Too much visual info, Terry. What made those trails hard is the dusting
    of sand and loam on top of the rock. You punch out and go down in a
    flash. Kept me riding pretty conservatively for fear of bones showing.
    Jamey probably has better shots - I just grabbed a couple.
