A rider returning to the sport that he loves.


A rider returning to the sport that he loves.

28 April 2011 / Posted by Nate Alig

Greetings.

I'm an American from the Santa Cruz Mountains in California (we have amazing hills here) and I'm returning to this sport. I stopped riding about 5 years ago after my friend got ghosted by a Ford, and I hade a pretty serious encounter with a tree... needless to say, I had to hang up my helmet for a while.

Anyway, I started building a new bike, and got one of my old riding buddies to join me. I look forward to showing off my ride and my exploits with it. This is a great site, and it's nice to know that I'm not the only one that's crazy enough to fling myself down a hill at irresponsibly high speeds... But you know what they say: Obsession isn't always a bad thing, and having company makes you look less crazy.

Uhhhhh... That's about it. I'll submit my Rider Profile when my bike is finished.
