The sun is still shining, shining, shining, shining over the James.

Why would I want to associate with people who judge me by a choice I made which affects only myself.

I will do what I want, thanks.

And right now, I want to hang out in the woods and dig trails. That has sort of been my life lately. I go to school and think about being on my bike. I gave myself a four day weekend every weekend just so I could sit in the woods and dig, ride, or watch friends ride. School, home, and life have been pretty weird so I feel like I have buried myself down there to keep my mind away from everything that stresses me out. This winter is going to suck once its too wet and cold to work on them and ride.

Speaking of the trails, they have come a long fucking way in only a couple months. Lots of dudes have been shredding what is open right now though. Bob and everyone were throwing some huge stuff over the step-up on the Downers line. Steve, Mike and Kitt have been riding Speedway which is finally open. Speedway is a pretty gnarly line. It started off as this tiny little “lets keep it mellow” sort of line, and ended up pretty ridiculous once Mike got a hold of it.

Steve Crandall started work on a new line that I am really excited about as well. We’ve been putting some work into that and now that it has rained a couple times and the dirt is packed down some we can start to shape them a little more. Unfortunately, that rain definitely blew our hopes of being able to ride some other stuff that was almost ready.

Thats how it goes. Im glad we started working on these this fall. After this winter the jumps are going to be hard as rocks.

Can’t wait.
