Last night I went mountain biking at night for the first time. I thought I would be a little freaked out by biking single track at night, but I loved it. It took on such a different feeling. I don't know how to explain it...it was like riding in the dark. Yeah that's exactly how it was. No, we had lights on out bikes and helmets...but it was still exciting. You didn't exactly know what was ahead of you so you had to be quick to adjust. I thought I rolled over a lot of stuff I normally would have avoided had there been more light. I think I am hooked, it's a great time for Seth and I to bike together esp. if we have had long days and ran out of day light.

I heart you guys bunches. got your message, will call soon. -e
That's rad. You guys are seriously so hardcore. I think I would be freaked out... but who knows...
That photo is so cool...I don't think I'm made for nighttime bike rides (at least where I live it would be too easy to hit deer and raccoons). You are so awesome.
Sounds really cool - I've done it twice (like 9 years ago), and it was such a different experience compared to biking during the day.
Sounds like a rush and something I would do if you were with me to pull me off the ground!!!
