Everyone always says it's important to have balance in college. For Nelson and I and the rest of the UCSB Mountain Bike team, that means getting out on our bikes as much as possible. And why not literally balance riding and schoolwork? Recently, we were assigned a creative project for our Greek Mythology class at UCSB--so naturally we decided to use our bikes to interpret the god Hermes.
The video we made shows Hermes guiding an unlucky dead soul (he had a real bad day out on the trails) to the underworld. We know it's a bit corny, but really, we just wanted an excuse to get out and ride. Enjoy!
