Black Ops

From the "Sourdude":

Hey boys and girls. A quick note on night riding. It rules. For example, take a ride you have done a thousand times.....do it at night with lights and it is a whole new ride.

So C. Erickson and I headed out on Thursday night around Redtop/Munger. We rode some of the new single track and then headed down to the lower Sqaw Creek for some sick single track. Mind you at this point it was still light, but I tricked him into some "trail work". Ha! We moved a few trees, splattered some cow shit on our selves and got out the hand saw for a quick cut. Then it turned DARK. How scary, but luckily we actually had light sets to find our way through the dust. It was really fun. We saw some big black cows and not much else, but we ripped it up for about 2 hours and headed back to the homestead for some tasty beers and Kbobs with Robin. The trails are riding great and I can't wait to get out there again. You have got to try night riding. - Dave S.

With such a great fall this year, a little additional technology can really extend our "short" season. We need a big push this year to bring the old guys into the 21st century with everyone acquiring the newest, high tech light sets. Prices have come down and lumens have gone up. Pry open those wallets guys!!
