grafton


on the 4th ride we ditched the chickas for a spin down grafton....and too much fun to take any additional photos. A chunky, technical wonderful trail which was kind of like blodgett canyon but at a 35% gradient (maybe steeper in spots) and nasty exposure thrown in the mix. Made it down safe and sound.....hit a few of the drops and jumps at the bottom just to push the luck. Good stuff and was feeling pretty good about myself until i heard from the fella at the local bike shop that he made it down on a fixed gear mtb !
