The 2WT Fearless Five

1 07 2009

Here’s the write up from Mark on last night’s ride:

Five riders tonight. Newcomer Roger, brought his fearless balance skills and “can do” attitude. He was not afraid of some of the advanced obstacles. Charlie did some great riding in his fearless style. Wheelies are becoming easy for him. Matt rips the “pipe of death” with phenomenal balance skills. Alan’s back wheel hops are getting smoother and more consistent.

Thanks for leading Mark!

All hail the coming of summer!

16 06 2009

It was a great summer evening for 2WT. Many people out and about along the waterfront. The usual suspects were there. Tim brought his mad bunnyhop and wheelie skills back this week and is talking about a trials bike 🙂 Robbie joined us on his 20″ and was looking good until the dreaded 4 hole pinch flat took him out. Charlie brought his dad Brian out and got his trackstand form dialed in. Adrian is looking fluid and smooth on the kona. Matt has taken his riding to a new level and is attacking obstacles at speed with great success. I need to start practicing more!

It looks like I missed a great ride!

Here’s the write-up from Mark:

Tonight was a great ride. We had Matt, Adrian, Kyle, Ryan and first timers Mike from Petoskey and Tim. Mike could really make that modified bike fly. Tim could ride walls and did great on the rocks, rolling over some big ones! Matt, Kyle and Adrian stepped it up on the rocks! They all did things they never had done before. What can you say about Ryan. He is an insiration as he works so hard on his progress. We ran into Jonah and his friends doing amazing tricks on their BMX bikes. Here are the pics. Enjoy!
