BMX bikes are way too much fun to ride once you figure it out. I've been spending a ton of time on a 24" cruiser riding bmx tracks, slalom tracks, and pump tracks and its really quickly changed the way I see things on the trails. Every little transition gets pumped and I've found myself having to pedal a lot less because of it. I'm really glad that I'm getting a hardtail for slalom now that I've learned to ride a bmx bike. The slalom track out at LMC is still in great shape, minus a bit of grass, but that doesn't matter much.
Today we went a rode slalom for a couple hours then went over to Sugar Mtn to ride some DH. The trail was in the best shape I've ever seen it, totally dry but plenty of traction everywhere. It was my first time on the DH sled after having Lasik done and I couldn't be happier. No more contact issues. Got to tune in the new Double Barrel too which turned out really well. Its such a good shock that I just forgot about it every run because it was so flawless. Looking forward to Snowshoe next weekend, got my fitness up a bit more now so hopefully I can hang! We shall see...
