5/27/07 Atomic Ridge

Postby commandtoad on Sun May 27, 2007 8:30 pm

today, myself, Scott, randy, Jennifer, ed g, wit, tie and some of there friends, headed to atomic ridge.
i think the last time i rode 23 was when we cut it in, it was ugly then and i had heard it had only gotten worse, so i never rode it because it was supposed to be "dangerous".
well I'm not listening to anyone anymore regarding trail ratings.
this trail is right! i had a blast! except for a broke axle 100 ft from the top, i walked the whole thing. i am proud to have this trail named after our club, and i am looking forward to riding it again.

anyway, here are some pics

That spot in the images looks like it would do some free body reworking pretty easy.

look here fred, i didn't see your whining ass on the trail last weekend, or for that matter, on any ride in the last 8 months. show yourself sometime and then you can give people who actually ride a hard time! :smt010
