Wheeling Pics, Crystal 6/26

Went up this weekend to Crystal Mountain/Moody, was a little wet which made for some slippery spots. PabloCruise went with me as we plundered the countryside.

Definitely need some lower gears...Just don't have enough to go slow and creep up stuff. The mighty 2F lugged way down to 200rpms but still managed to live. Need to lower my bumpstops, the Aqualu double arm allowed the relay rod to hit the frame under full stuff...just a slight bend!!!

here are some poser pics!.

Hey, I went up there just yeserday. It is a fun little trail. I had to work on Saturday night otherwise I would have gone up with you guys.

Did you go up Moody and check out the rock quarry area? That is a fun little obstacle.
