Heath has become quite the Weekend Warrior as he has gotten back into mountain biking after taking a few years off. He has found a couple friends at church that love to ride as well. They have designated Friday morning as their ride day, although they usually try to weasel their way into a Saturday morning ride as well (the things I put up with).
He recently decided he wanted a new mountain bike. After agreeing that we did not have the money for one, he decided to sell his old mountain bike and his road bike in order to raise enough cash. He just got his new bike on Thursday, and he's pretty excited about it.
The riding has also taken a bit of a toll on his body(See picture above). Last week he crashed while attempting to land some ridiculous jump and some rocks really chewed up his right arm. He says it's just road rash but it looks pretty nasty to me. He also tells me stories about pulling thorns out his body after brushing by cacti that are right along the trails. I'm not sure why he finds all this fun, but he seems pretty elated when he gets home. He's even started his own blog so he can write about his rides.
