- Notes: these CA riders do not tire easily (riding up mountains year round does that)...and I'm a little afraid of their after-ride activities (see picture)

Tidbits: liquor stores are scarce around Big River, we ended up at Flo's for fish & chips...and pitchers of Bass!

Great tracks recorded by Ron on his iPhone ("there's an App for that")...

Funny. That bike making the launch looks strangely familiar. Did it survive the jump? :-)

Oh yeah...no damages (only minor damages on Hector)! He wants to bring you new tires next time!
