New friends in the Forest...

every year i get the same phone call from Barry... "Barnes.  We are doing a Trek Riding Clinic in Durham.  I need you to help out..."  and my answer is always "Yes Barry.  Anything you say..."
As usual, i took the Advanced Group (not only because i like riding fast, but because the conversations we are able to have about pedal position, cornering, sight lines, gearing etc are a great reminder for me also...) and had a great time - probably my best group yet!!!

we spent about 2hrs riding and stopping to talk about different aspects of riding and racing .... and it was great to have the different opinions and thoughts from everyone in the group.... we rode some great trails and all learned a few things.... and came out smiling!!!  I love the fact that our group was the first group back, and when i asked "Hey...  Anyone want to ride Burnt Toast again??"  the whole group clipped in and wanted to get another 20mins of riding!!

Thanks to Murray, Mike, Eric, Lisa, John and the rest of the Group for a great evening.... they weren't even upset that we missed out on the Clif Bar Door Prizes!!
