The Missing Link, Found

A bit of road trip, some riding, some Fall Guys (shipped), and the "missing link"

First up was a trip to Bellingham for some good old fashion mountain biking. Raya and I picked up a friend in Seattle, Christine ,(current fastest North American Woman Bike Messenger, although not currently a messenger) and headed North.

Bellingham is a beautiful place with friendly people. I'd recommend to anyone looking for some good times. Timeout%20029.JPG
Unfortunately, arcing down twisty singletrack wasn't enough to shake the "missing link" from my head....Timeout%20033.JPG Ahhhh!
Met up with another friend, Cara, in Seattle on my way home, and rode at the Greenlake jumps, which was a little frightening with all the wind... Cara's got a cool house in the works: Timeout%20035.JPG

Returned to PDX. Tony and I applied the new stickers and shipped Fall Guys. If you are reading this, and had been waiting for a Fall Guy...sorry for the delay. I really like this new sticker:

Speaking of Fall Guys. Hcor.net reviewed one here: http://www.hcor.net/article427.html

The weather held up and we decided to do a little street riding. Tony's really getting his "Dizz Hicks" style dialed in..

We also encountered something that looked like it was fresh out of a mad max film, rather than the streets of Portland....keen eyes will find the Spa and Sand Rail frame.Timeout%20046.JPG

I think I enjoy the discovery and adventure of street, more so than the actual riding than it presents.

We decided to ride at Burnside the next morning. This was good. Burnside always impresses me with it's infinite possiblilities. Not that I'm good enough to take advantage of much...As we where leaving, Burnside local, "Twin Fin" arrived and demonstrated the potential of the place. He is simply amazing to watch. Photos don't do this guy's riding justice.

Anyway, here are a few photos of Tony and I cruising around the park:

Timeout%20054.JPG: Same move. Different Perspective.

Here's a parting Fall Guy frame shot for all those who've been waiting:
