Encino Reservoir from dirt Mulholland ...
|
|
 |
... hmm, I think the water level is going down!
|
|
 |
the group gathers at the top of the Sullivan Ridge trail
|
|
 |
Babek has to turn back because of a failing hub
|
|
 |
a trim Norm makes a late appearance - but not as late as Bob M. later!
|
|
 |
Brad starts out on an epic descent
|
|
 |
so this is what they mean by hanging back!
|
|
 |
Leah should worry about that saddle!
|
|
 |
Brad is in full form now but ...
|
|
 |
... oops! - I think Brad didn't see that dip, those forks look bottomed out! ...
|
|
 |
... and over he goes!
|
|
 |
quick, get back on the bike ...
|
|
 |
... and nonchalantly ride on down ...
|
|
 |
... nobody saw that little 'dab' did they?!
|
|
 |
Bob P. and Richard head up another side trail ...
|
|
 |
... down the other side is like a ski slalom!
|
|
 |
the group takes a breather before more fun single-track!
|
|
 |
and the trails go on!
|
|
 |
at the bottom of the gnarly 'goat track' in Sullivan Canyon
|
|
 |
now, why are we waiting? ...
|
|
 |
... that's right - for Bob to make his usual late appearance!
|
|
 |
ride leader Huck braves the Sullivan heat ...
|
|
 |
... over the hump now and the grimace fades ...
|
|
 |
... now he sees the camera - thanks Huck!
