@mustbike: Thanks for the reply to my questions. First off, to clarify, Whistle Punk is a Blue trail. I’ve never heard it described as a Black trail, by anyone, including the builders of the trail. Second, you have a serious misconception on who the builders are of that trail system, with your comment about them being “green riders”. Team Dirt is loaded with some riders that have been putting in the hard work on the lower trails, with the intent that it will soon be “their turn”. This wasn’t necessarily by choice…..It’s the way a trail system is designed, with it starting with a Green trail, lower on the hill, and working your way up in elevation and skill. Now that the initial trails are in and running great, the builds have moved further up the hill, building the trails that the builders want……Fast, gnar, big hits, steeper, tech, rocky chutes, all of it. There will be Black trails, like really soon. Sorry, I don’t mean to sound like I’m taking it personal, but I guess I am. I’ve put my time in building out there, and I take great pride in the progress that going on out there. The crew that has been involved of late is straight up killing it. Come check it out, Misery Whip is opening on the 22nd for the shuttle fundraiser. Come check it out, then give your revised feedback. Or, come out and help build. Yeah, come out and build and put your $.02 into the trail system, and make it what YOU want it to be.

@mustbike: I’m curious what you perceive as mislabeled at Alsea? I find them pretty accurate in grade, but always am curious of what others think.

@tacklingdummy: I think you’re taking too much away from the rider. The advantage that Martin provides is the difference, not the bike.

I was wondering too. She’d be my first pick in the ladies bracket and I think she’ll be taking down big names in just her first year with the big guns.

That’s an all-star team right there!! Gatto and Secco! Wow!!!

Two words.......Dream. Girl.

I love the Alan Watts quotes!!!!! Well, the riding was pretty sick too.

Me too! I love that they brought the TR Blue back to this bike! I dig my ‘16 Carbon Patrol, but this SBG equipped version would be so fun!!

My dream ride is a 2019 Patrol Carbon......and I ride a 2016 Patrol Carbon in TR Blue currently! Transition Owner For Life!
