Dirt Fest!

Where: Allegrippis trails where 400+ mountain bikers converged one weekend into the woods of 32 miles of singletrack. Yep, I'm in. These were some of the fastest, flowiest (if that's a word), smoothest trails that I've ever been on. The Army Corp of Engineers built them just a year ago. They did a fantastic job as they are sustainable and don't involve a whole lot of climbing (just have to know the right direction). As you can see from one picture, a steep dip got the best of me. 3 hours into riding, I crashed pretty hard coming down a black trail descent. Even with the injury, if was well worth it. My friend and I are already plotting when we can return to this mountain biking haven of sorts.
