Ack! I like the chaquita part better than the Viejo Tie part. Tooooooo
much exposure at the top. The left side of my body would
look like raw beef from scraping the walls to keep my "no sense of
balance" self from tumbling down the mountain.

Hell, I get scraped up just walking down that section.

Yeah, it always looks easier, flatter, simpler on video.... But most of us
know better... heheh

It looked a bit like San Juan Trail only this one had big boulders to
contend with.

Very perceptive if you didn't know that these are alternate and bonus routes
of San Juan proper.

Why do the MTBidiots wear so much body armor?

When I checked out the pix of Penny's new trail I got a much better handle on
why people wear the stuff.

Meaning that people wear armor on XC rides because
it's now "part of the uniform" or Penny's new
trail was dumbed down so many people would feel
comfortable riding it without armor whereas the
original trail was somehow armor-worthy?

I don't get and will probably never get why so
many people wear armor on trails other than lift
served DH trails or stunty Shore-like trails.

footage of you rolling the Viejo Tie Boulder.

Great videos. It's nice to see Tani ride... the boy can ride. And nice
JD cameo, too.

Thanks, I needed some footage. It's been too long for me :-(

I tried that stuff at Jim Thorpe once. It was so sweaty, constricting,
and it fell down from where it was supposed to be causing me to crash
even more than without it. Boo-boos are part of the game.

It doesn't have to be. Are you that busy? Stop making excuses and go
ride your bike! Don't make me come over there and drag you out, cause I
just might do that.

Actually, yes, I have been /that/ busy with school. But, I'm taking the
2nd half of this semester off... I need to get back into some kind of
riding shape... other than squishy grapefruit shape.

Thanks for the smack, though :-)

Armor, you mean like a helmet?

I don't have the skills to ride those "armor-worthy" trails
so no armor will protect me.
