I love DH bikes. They make my motor hum like a buzzy bee. I get excited just looking at my DH bike and all silly when I ride it and pretend I’m Asa who makes it look SO easy.

Oh it'll groove in and the biggest rocks get kicked clean off. I love how there is some cool wide turns and its not just all super high speed stuff. Very mtb'y track.
