Ouch, what caused your bad crash? I had several crashes that I have no idea what happened, I was just suddenly on the ground. Most crashes when I started were from getting scared and trying to stop...
I despise perpendicular roots! They grab your tire and you slide along them rather than going over. Maybe the problem IS the bigger tire, the root has more to grab onto!
I think they all worked hard to get where they are and any edge they can get, they will take. If everyone else at the top is doping, then you are gonna do it to. Not saying that is right, but is...
Did you make it back or did the bears get ya? Curious what you took for food since you weren't planning on hitting up too many towns.
Most dogs are just in it for the chase and will stop when you stop. I like to stop and put the bike between me and the dog, use it as a weapon if you need to. They make a special dog mace called...

I often mountain bike with 4 or 5 other gals and we are all at different skill levels. We find it best to all ride at our own pace. If it is a trail we don't know the faster gals will wait up at...
I think there is a difference between my stomach being hungry and my mouth being hungry. My mouth gets hungry for certain tastes long before my stomach ever gets hungry. Chewing mint or cinnamon gum...
Selling things to friends is on my list of things to never do. The main thing here though is the fit. Fit is the most important part of buying a bike. So if she insists on buying the bike, explain...
Didnt mean to imply that drinking the v8 cut my desire for sweets. Been a cokeaholic all my life. Just been trying to find something I can sip on all day at work instead of coke. Not many drinks I...
I recently read about the acai berry too and got to looking around. Found v-8 fusion that has acai berri, blueberries and other stuffs in it. Probably not enough acai to make a difference but it...
