What are those? How fast are they? Do they come in custom colors and graphics? How much do they cost?

Gotta love half bike pictures, is this the new surly bridge club?

This is typical for where I ride but you rarely get more than a hundred yards or so of flat ground like this.

Those rocky bluffs look interesting.

Got miles of em here. These are along a particular creek that is in fact named Bluff Creek. Often the bluffs run on both sides of the creek and are so steep and high you cannot even get down to the creek. Which is a shame because the creek bottom, often a couple hundred feet lower, is a whole other micro-clime and very lush compared to the rocky hills we inhabit. This is hard country.

Here's a shot of my typical hilly roads:

This one, not counting it's branches, which are many, is about 6 miles long.

The grass is always greener ..... I like my riding area but it's terribly rough. It is rare indeed to have more than a few seconds where you don't have to keep your eyes riveted on your track just a few yards ahead. Rocks, more rocks and washed out ruts growing to small ravines.

That does look amazing to ride.

The arm covers are a good idea.

Those are Troy Lee elbow pads. its not a matter of ifni fall it is just when I fall so I‘m trying to play it safe as much as possible. You can see my Troy Lee speed knee pads also. They are my favorite pads. Super comfortabl.
