  • I was really stoked to meet Rich from the ‪@SemiSendy‬ channel when he said he was coming to Downieville. However, I figured it would be really fun for him to ride some of the other lesser known downhill shuttles in the Sierra's. Mt. Hough and Mills Peak are close by so we made a day out of it. One of these runs ended up being his favorite from the whole trip!

    We've had one of the wettest summers in NZ's North Island, and to top that off the loggers have moved into the local Bike Trails, which means they closed it for the next 6 months! Watching this has eased some of the Pain of not riding as much as I want to.........but at the same time makes me want to go for a ride!!!

      Right on, it's super fun. Plus they should have the new route that goes almost the whole run open next season so if you go and do two laps they won't be the same run.

    How did you mount your garmin to your stem?
    I've been looking for a clean way to do that as don't want to replace my top cap with the mount I used to use on old bike.

      One run of Mt. Hough and 2 of Mills. My total ride was 35 miles so I took off 5 miles because we had to pedal back to the shop in Quincy. Otherwise it was all DH.

      The only downside is it comes black but after awhile the sun changes the color. But it’s under your Garmin so you don’t see it.
