To sean, and the builders of woodlot

This weekend, i drove 10 hours out to the border. Sean, his Gf chealsy (i think i may be spelling it right) and their friend cory were kind enough to take a not so talented rider, and show me the woodlot.
I have never had so much fun on a bike.
I am just here to thank you sean, For guiding, the patience, and everything inbetween. Now, you just gotta find your way out to montana now sean, the winter beckons.
Builders of woodlot, thank you. You have constructed some amazing trails, and i know i only got to see the tip of the iceberg. MY hat is off to you.


I couldnt have imagined a better way to end a riding season. And it planted a bug. 10 hours each way to ride is more than worth it.

Chris

p.s. sean. ONce you left, they picked me up, we ate, and then hit the road, under the guize of " we just wana put some distance between us.. i got into missoula at 8 this morning...

hehe.
Yea. next time i get out there, it will be a longer trip. IT was just much too short this time
I would have come out and rode seatac, but im sure by the time you hit the trails, i was in montana. My driving buddy just drank too much coffee, and red bulls.. I helped for the last few hundred miles as the comedic relif.. rember that beer i told you was still in my runner

Yea. The winter should be good. And 30x30 can be made bigger if you wanted.

I did have a blast, The smile is still plastered across my face... Once again. thank you.

Umbullit,

I am glad to here you liked your ride in The Woodlot.

Next time you want to come up here, have Cory (Robot) give me a hollar, I have yet to ride at The Woodlot with one of you Yanks.

What trails were you able to get a taste of?

I was mighty beaten.
As i mentioned on the trail, i had a scone, and some coffee for breakfast. I got beat to hell. But.. I loved every minuite of it..

Sean. at that time, we were deep in the fog that was looming in the valley.. I still have no idea how my buddy was able to stay up..

Some buddies may be headed back out to seattle in a weeks time... Might have to pay them a little to let me ride along...
