Bow Legged and Narrow at the Shoulder

I've now flatlanded on the penninsula. I'm up at Mervin Manufacturing wrangling some snowboard photos for the Gnu catalog and I had a chance to ride on some dry concrete at a little elementary school up the road. It was a nice, solitary time on my bike. It's crazy how things just come to you in a flash that open the door to other things. I was trying sqeakers and kept falling to the right until I realized I wasn't bending my knee. A slightly bow legged adjustment to the left kept me centered and I rolled backwards further than ever before. It's that kind of enlightenment that keeps me SO STOKED on riding my bike. Also, The Sarge will be happy to know that I rolled into a forward mega-spin, got the whole first forward 360 solid and then kicked my back tire right into a fakie 360. Luck would have it that my pedal was there and I landed that sonofabitch, rolled back to my truck, put my bike in it and came back to work. I'm satisfied with tonight's session. I hope it stays dry tomorrow while I'm in Bellingham. I'm obsessed.

Justin has what looks to be the spot of spots for the winter. I'm looking forward to hanging at that place between trips this winter. I'm scheming on a way to bring my bike with me on my travels. There has to be an easy way to store that sucker conveniently...

Catch you dogs this weekend. Where's the session?
