I arrived in Manson last night just in time to have dinner at ‘My Buddy’s Place’ and little did I know, they were just starting their Saturday night karaoke. I couldn’t pass up that opportunity!!!!
Over the past 4 years, I’ve written 20 mountain bike music parodies to popular rock or pop songs. You will find those lyrics embedded in 20 of the 500 ride reports I have published on this website. Last night I sang three of them….
My versions of:
(Mountain Bike Bum)
( on Full Suspension)
(Cascade Mountain High, my life story)
I had a fun time!
This morning after last night’s fun, I planned to do an early ride at Echo Ridge hoping to see some deer and some views. This morning, I parked at the bottom of Bergman Gulch and climbed it to the North Junction. Then I went counterclockwise on the Outback adding a trip to the summit. The descent was fast and I kept going into Waterbar Heaven to make it long.
I climbed back up Bergman and then proceeded into Dust to Glory, Far East, saw mommy, and baby, deer in the middle of Far East! I stopped and watched them for a bit and then took off to finish the ride on Grand Drop, Bob’s, Devine Intervention, Shoe, and finally Switchback Alley. The Trailforks Activity Log for the ride today is here.
