The Quest for the Gnarliest Fall

*****WARNING - SCROLLING DOWN WILL REVEAL GROSSNESS**********

Well, I got posting rights to this blog about 2 years ago when I was making a "get the crank team famous" video (which I didn't even end up posting). I'm pretty sure most of the guys didn't know I could do this, but I'm hijacking the blog!

I'm hijacking this blog because I came across the gnarliest bike fall picture I have ever seen (being the son of "Man Down" - this is saying something). I immediately wanted to share it with the crank team, and this is probably the easiest and most secret agent-like way to do it!

Check out this dude!

Can anyone beat this fall? It may not have caused the most damage, but he sure did "become one with his bike".

Welcome Back Summer!

It's been nearly a year since our last post ... far far too long! Last summer a whole lot of rainy weather, furious product development on Storyboard 1.0 at Crank Software and some new little people gave us a half reasonable set of excuses to explain our lack of riding.

Good news this year ... the weather's been hot and we've done more riding so far this season than most of last year! The bad news is that our local Kanata Lakes trails are being massively intersected by a four lane connector road.

To mix things up a little bit and introduce a few more loop options we've started running a small 200m connector between Pete's Wicked and the Outback. For lack of a better term, I'm calling the Crank CutOff and it lets you run a nice little lunch loop without committing to the complete Outback.

Here's hoping a few others will enjoy this little loop extender.
