It is really hard to beat Fall mountain biking in the McCall area.
After grinding up the Rim Trail for a goodly amount of time, Spianchi takes a break.
Looking down on Lake Payette with Jughandle Mountain in the distance.
The Rim Trail connects to the Moto Trail, The Moto Trail connects to the Rock Garden Trail, Dem Bones, Dem Bones!
These colors even make Rich look good!
Near the top of the mountain, the views go off the charts.
Bird makes his way through the switchbacks.
I’m not sure who built this trail but the last switchback before the top has to be one of the best I have ever ridden!
At the top of the mountain we take a good long break and soak in this amazing Fall day.
I have dropped many epic descents in my day including the Whole Enchilada in Moab and Mont Ventoux in Provence, the descent from the top of Brundage into McCall is right there! Yeeee Hawwww! This was one of our few stops on the way down, we lost Bird for a while and when Rich and I went back a half mile or so we found him caught in some mysterious feedback loop. We rebooted him and he was good to go!
