so today i woke up early this morning to finally do some downhill biking with my new bike. now i dont have a solid downhill setup for my bike but it is a good setup nonetheless and i've been itching to do some good downhill biking. i went with some buddies up to the Butte and we hiked up it with our bikes in hand. going up it was pretty gnarly looking and i was really thinking that i was gonna have to do a lot of walking down but when we got to the top they told me that we were gonna bike down the other side not the side we hiked up. i was relieved and i became ready to push off. but no joke after pushing off like not even 10 seconds later i had fallen off my bike into the bushes. the trail got a little technical in the drop in point but i got it down by the second try and by the third time that we hiked up the mountain i was able to go down the whole mountain without crashing once. now i call that an accomplishment. it was way fun. and after a bunch of endo's and brake skidding i'm still alive and am making plans for the next riding adventure.
no way is this photo of me but it is of my friend dan.

You must be super-biker-man! Up and down 3 times? It looks so fun!
AHH I want to do that!
oh my heck, my first reaction was, you are going to BIKE DOWN the BUTTE!!!??? But I was thinking what you were thinking, like biking down the way you hike up, that would be gnarly... but hey, I am impressed you guys did it three times in a row, way to go man! you're my rockin' hero!!
