Labor Day Weekend 07 - Day 3

2nd day at Northstar. We loved this place!!! It actually rained a bit in the morning which made the trail conditions better than perfect!

Meandering trail through the pines.

Tati on one of the big berms on Live Wire. Live Wire was more like a motocross track than a trail. A bunch of perfect table top jumps and big banked corners. So much fun.

A view up the Live Wire run.

Our buddy Daren met us out there for the day. Smiles all around!
Fun little rock "feature."
Tati on one of the many ramps.

U Totem bike, we ridem trail.

Happy souls with happy soles.

Labor Day Weekend 07 - Day 2.1

We also got to spend some time with our friends Amy, James, and their baby Lizzie. They were on a little vacation in Tahoe City. Super nice people and Lizzie's just a doll.

Labor Day Weekend 07 - Day 2

Day 2 we landed at Northstar at Tahoe.
Northstar has a really nice village area to start and end your day at.

Epic mountain bike trails, pines trees, sunny skies, and time to enjoy a Starbucks on the chairlift ... quite normal really.
Tati rocks one of the rocks!
Fantastic flowing trails cut through woods with perfect berms, jumps, rock drops, logs, etc.
Wheeeeee!

Labor Day Weekend 07 - Day 1

For Labor Day weekend, Tati and I headed out on a mountain bike adventure. Our first stop was Mammoth. We met up with Tati's friends Jennifer and Megan. The 4 of us had a blast riding all day, pitchers of beer at Lack-a-nookie, and big burritos at Romiros.

Tati, Jenn, and Megan. These girls can embarrass a lot guys on their bikes.

Tati calls Shotgun! And summons her Eagle Powers!

Another Mammoth MTB Weekend

Back up to Mammoth for another great weekend of Mountain Biking.

I finally rolled the log on "Shotgun."

Big Head Todd & The Monsters played a concert in the woods. They were awesome!
Mountain biking all day, a concert in the pines, quite normal really. I even got to play a little guitar at LuLu's in the Village.
Warm feet, warm souls, warm hearts.

Summertime party at Mick and Laura's house in Rancho Santa Fe. They run a horse boarding and training facility out of their "backyard." Great friends, great views, great food, cold beverages, we had a great time.
