RAND MOUNTAINS & SPANGLER HILLS
Reggie charging up one of the hills to lead the few of us who opted not to go down an extremely steep dropoff through an alternate route... that was almost a 90 degree free fall situation, NO JOKE!
Off we go on the Devil's Rollercoaster.
I charged up this steep hill with throttle pinned in 3ed gear behind Andrew, only to watch in horror as his front wheel hugged the blue sky and he looped it... I tried to slow myself down fearing I would crash right into him, then felt like I was losing my forward momentum to make the ultra steep section by the top! I shifted to first and opened the throttle only to see my front wheel hug the sky too...I close the throttle with the bike vertical and fall on the side...luckily, no broken limbs...just bruises!
Andrew charges the hill of doom again, he was determined to conquer it, despite its steep uphill and badly cratered section that resembled the surface of the moon! He made it safe and sound this time, but at a price.... we later discovered that he badly pinched his rear tire on a rock and developed a flat!
