There will be 6 million people at the inaugural opening and we will get The Bad Green Loop Stealers to pay for it.


No more smooth rides for those free loading Greenies. Stealing our trails.  Making them smooth for the snowflakes.  No longer will this stand. We will round them up and send them back to McAlpine.  #blueandblackfirst, #Gnarlivesmatter

Shearing the shaft member after a hard ride is acceptable in my book.

I'm just sayin' if healthcare wasn't so dang high there wouldn't be a fuss because we could afford to get hurt on mtb trails....

I know I definitely ride a little more cautiously after having to pay for my elbow surgery... and I have excellent company health insurance. 

I could've bought a set of i9 Pillar Carbon wheels AND paid for a week long vacation in Pisgah for my out of pocket cost on the surgery.

Without insurance it would have cost me as much as a brand new BMW 3 series  Shocked

This is what I am picturing Fish Stix green trail looks like after reading the OP's initial post.

I rode the green loop yesterday and only had to walk one section! I have almost mastered this difficult and challenging trail. I feel my abilities are about ready to test those insane blue loops. should I wear a full face helmet and crash pads?

I have never been able to cross the skinny's on the black loop. I watched a video , and they didn't seem all that thin. But first I have to do something about the hardtail I ride. The roots on the greentrail make it seem as if I'm riding a jackhammer Roll Eyes Tongue
