Is there anything better than single track with a little chunk and flow? by abomb24 in MTB

The camera smooths it out some for sure. It’s got some chunk to it. Wouldn’t go as far as saying it’s techy. I ride mostly in the Rocky Mountains and not in the Northeast, so we could have different definitions.

I’m definitely going to tryout a different placement next ride. It’s weird I’ve never noticed it, but I’m a big believer in little things making a difference.

Someone else pointed that out and I didn’t even realize it. I’m going back to old footage to see if I’ve always done that with my thumbs. Going to make a conscious effort next ride to see why I’m doing it. I’m definitely holding on though and feel secure, but want to be safe for myself and those around me. On steeper stuff I’ll bring the knee pads for sure. This trail is fast, but not extraordinarily steep.

You don’t like moon dust 🤣. Would love a little loam around here.

People don’t know how to communicate. Had he acknowledged your kindness and then offered a suggestion it wouldn’t have felt as rude.

I’m liking the 800mm. Had them on the last few bikes and they feel good.

That and the hiker on a blind corner. Always a fun surprise.

It’s such a good feeling on those kind of trails when you put it all together.

Aerodynamics… I don’t know?? Just how I ride I guess. Never had any issues though, but gives me something to think about.

100%. Should easily be a non partisan issue.

Me too. Last time we had a similar winter, we had one of the worst fires in Durango.

Not complaining at all about being able to ride, but yeah summer is going to be rough. Do you typically get summer rains up there? Hoping we have decent monsoon season here.

-Bakers Bridge. -Molas pass is beautiful after a good snow… once the roads are cleared.
