Shake Down Ride
Oh, dear friends. The Eagle has landed. We built up our demo Delerium T. Yes….it is a big bike. And by big, I mean like 40 lbs big. So, today I pedaled it up the mountain. There was a lot of time spent in the 22/34……..as in almost the whole ride. You know what? It didn’t suck. It was slow, but steady, and I got to look at the flowers and the sky. When the trail leveled out to take the link over to deer valley, things were super fun. And then, let me tell you, the downhill kicked ass. I took Devo (DEBO) down. Lance and I built the bottom part of that trail. I usually don’t ride it because honestly, I can’t. Its too hard. I can with this bike. Oh baby. Oh, this is neat….so I’m on the link trail and there is a pyramid of logs in the trail. In 15 years, I have never rolled over a set of logs. Those days are over. It was so easy on a big bike - just great.
Big thanks to the folks at Knolly. They are great bikes. And it will be a pleasure to sell them at the shop.
