More

Here are some more official pictures of recent digging. I suppose it it sort of a humble beginning but some work is getting done and things are coming along. Steve has put in a bunch of work the past couple days so here is some of that fruit...

No Ray's

Well the Ray's trip fell through for this weekend. Shane wrecked pretty bad the other day and would not have been able to go. So that he is able, we are going to try to reschedule within the next couple weeks and try to make it out. A bummer, to say the least, but I have a ton of stuff to do anyway and it has been so nice that there are plenty of other opportunities to ride locally this weekend.

I have gotten my new flash trigger set-up out a couple times and have some decent flicks to show for it. Below are some recent one from the park. I can't wait to get them out in the woods.

Rays II

Second trip to rays coming up this weekend... the roster is a mess to say the least but looks like things are finally starting to sort out with 2 vehicles and 6 people and 2 rooms. word.

Some digging has been going on this past week and weekend. Two things are for certain and one is we desperately need to pick up some shovels, we have one working shovel at the moment, and secondly i need to get motivated like i was last year.

2010 Dirt Season

This can be found in all of the usual places but it is really good so I thought I would put it up here. I have never been to Catty but this edit makes me really want to go experience the place: it looks other-worldly. Maybe we can get a crew to make a trip this spring/summer. I am not sure how much time I will have to spend on the bicycle this summer due to getting married but I am hoping to stay somewhat consistent and be able to ride enough to progress a bit. We will see. Either way, I think everyone is ready for warm weather and digging season to commence...until then, watch some Catty footage.
