{I'm forwarding Trainwrecks ride report from this morning. What a great ride!}

Reactor and I took a Ferris Bueller day and headed up and down the Mormon / National trail at South Mountain. Reactor's first ride on his new Enduro Expert. Some photos from this morning...

Three hours, about 11-12 miles if I remember correctly. About two hours climbing, 30 minutes of photo shoots and playing around, and 30 minutes down.

Big Cacti, big frikkin rocks, dry trails, everything looks pretty cool except no bar ends....:sneaky:
