"It's just around this next left" you think to yourself. You have ridden this trail before, did it get longer? You are not complaining though, because you love flat corners, sweeping from trees to fields. It rained two days ago and because YOU KNOW NOT TO RIDE RAINY TRAILS you have been rewarded with hero dirt and you are pretending like you are Marc Marquez blasting through the esses at COTA. Wait. Wrong sport.
