What a fun ride it was today. The Riders: Mike Kim, Jim, JJ The Whale, Dirty Boo, Red Hot Sloth....and a spotting of a new subscriber to the Dirt Treaders Site..."Panaracer". Fat What? and I ran into this gentleman the other day while on our "Huckin' Burm Jam" and invited him over to visit and he just signed up today...welcome Panaracer glad to have you here. We passed him in opposite directions this morning at about our 1 mile mark on the initial climb, he was heading home, we were heading to glorious trails, rocks, drops, jumps, berms and trailside repairs. We climbed Switchback Trail and descended Nascar. This was where numero uno of the flat-0-tire count...it was dealt with swiftly by Mike Kim, he was like a Nascar Tire Changer out of uniform as he deftly made the neccessary repair. We rolled afew obstacles, dropped a few features and kicked ass on down Nascar, where at the base we came to the junction of Vista Del Mar Trail and headed up up up. Chatting and having a good time at the kiosk atop La Costa Trails and recoving from a couple good climbs we siezed the opportunity for some more photos. Once we were well rested we headed down Switchback Trail, bumping and jumping all the way down...but this is where numero dos of the flat-0-tire count comes in....what the?! It was again Mikes rear tire, he was shredding the gnar so hard his tires just couldn't maintain inflation. I had a blast and I hope everyone else had as much fun on this ride as I did. When we got back to our staging area, we had some local craft brew on hand and yep, we took part in a tasting...just one cup ya'll, it was tasty, yet safe. Nice to meet you Jim, great riding with you, and great riding with JJ The Whale, Mike Kim and Dirty Boo, thanks for the ride, it was awesome, I am looking forward to doing it again. The pics are not quite in order as they were took, but I guess that doesn't matter. Enjoy ![]() Red Hot Sloth *And I cannot forget our photog familiar...the lovely Dirty Boo, thanks for taking wicked nice pics beautiful!!! Look...Its a Dirt Treader shirt!!!! Tastes So Good...Makes You Wanna Slap Yo' Momma!!! Please enjoy this Treaders Report responsibly. |

It's a Where's Panda adventure. He's showing up on backpacks, in helmets, even on handle bars. Maybe the panda gods were angry and they demanded tube sacrifices. |
