Lew Mo. Trails in pretty good shape. Mostly dry. Some ice at the bottom of the blue trail, but easy enough to go around.

We rode Hally Toe upwards, which weren’t easy, but Santa helped us along! Winter riding is awesome.

Sterling. Redback Trail. Bursts of frigid winds, dustings of frost, icicles hanging off of cliffs. But it was sunny and we got to climb up, then send it down. Climb up. Send it down. Climb up. Send it down. Over and over. What an awesome day!




Not the best photo, but I did feel the Sasquatch’s foot steps when I was trying to focus. Sasquatch loves Stephens! 🙂

Way Way.

Trail building at Lew Mo. Fun stuff.


Blue Mountain in Peekskill NY. It was fun. I’d ride there again. Lots of steep climbs and rock gardens. Kinda reminded me of a cross between Sterling and Wildcat.
Dropper post also broke partway into the ride. Oh well. Time for a new one!

The Roller Coaster trail at Stewart Forest was a lot of fun.

I didn’t realize how smooth and flowy it is until I went back to ride it. It’s natural to get in the zone of cutting branches, raking leaves, shoveling dirt. That zone is necessary to do a good job. Then when you snap out of that micro-focus to take a step back and look at the big picture, it’s very satisfying. This trail is a nice addition to Lew Mo. Can’t wait to build more in October.

Woke up at the crack of dawn, met a bunch of awesome people in the woods, and we cut a new MTB trail at Lewis Morris.
