Stepping out once in a while is a good thing!!!

So i wrote a great post here earlier today.......then the internet Gremlins ate it. So what you get is this instead!!!

The long weekend led to some great bike adventures. Leaving Brackendale isn't so scary after all! I headed to the North Shore to go for a cyclocross ride. The Shore gets such a hardcore reputation from the all the free rider hype that it scares off a high percentage of people on bicycles. Not me!!!! Equipped with my trusty 'cross bike I set my sites on the shore and let loose.




The view from the office!





This stretch is as rad as it looks. No cars ever on this section of road. RAD!!!!!






The road ends in these rocks if you go the wrong way! The right way leads to sick 'cross bike single-track for a few Km's.



It's all down hill from here!!!!


Sick spot. One of only a few times I've been to this spot in daylight! This used to be part of my mountain bike night ride commute home from work!

So much candy!!!!!!



Also took the opportunity to satisfy my inner capitalist consumption urges with the very satisfying purchase of a sick new shirt! Wax on wax off!!!! Sand the deck........and so on.

Get out there!!!
