It's been almost a year since we purchased our mountain bikes and headed out for the trails.

The other day my parents told me a friend of the family's kid was reading my website. My first thought was cool. My second thought was, damn, do I curse too much? (Not possible, I am way more filtered on here than in the real world, snugglier too). I'm always shocked to find that people...
