remember how the day started out? dang that's chilly for a south padre guy!
my campsite at concho, I spent 10 days in big bend just before this event
this poor guy was stuck with a broken clutch lever between two tough hillclimbs! I yelled back down to him that there was more knarly stuff if he got past the climb in front of him. I never saw him again either .......
he's down there somewhere .....
a nice view, and I wish I had more time to take pics along the way as now as I remember, there was some pretty cool stuff! ... and there was that goat trail along a overhang cliff, kinda like a tunnel of sorts ......
cookies? not for those in the later rows .....
I rode with these guys quite a bit. we teamed up on some of those hillclimbs in the beginning to help each other out. I did the b course so I broke off from them for awhile. I remember the c/b split well, the b trail went up to the right, and up it went! I sat there for more than a few moments wondering if I really had it in me to tackle that hill and get into b territory, heck c stuff was tough enough! I wacked the throttle a few times and went for it! It was fun making it thru that part. I did happen to catch up with these guys again for a short time but lost them somewhere along the way .....
yeah, concho get a big thumbs up from me!
