downhill mountain biking is scary shit! i don’t think i’m gonna do that too much more. it was hella fun and luckily i didn’t take any big falls. but i’m convinced i was goin places at speeds where if i did fall i woulda been lucky to have just a broken arm or something. i didn’t really realize how different downhill was from cross-country, but if you think about skiing downhill vs x-country it’s about the same difference. all the other kids on the mountain had all this padding and rigid arm, wrist, shoulder, back, leg, and knee guards like they were decked out for motocross. i had a helmet. and sunscreen.
though there is this one trail i’d like to try that i didn’t have time to… most of all though, going up there made me wish there was snow and we could go down on boards instead of wheels.
and i still really want a wrx wagon.
