This is PISGAH!!

Had a couple of friends come into town who were on tour a tour of North Carolina during their winter break. They had already hit up the Scott Kerr trails up in Wilkesboro while visiting Boone, and now were in Asheville for a couple days of fun. Back during Thanksgiving I had promised them that I would give them a proper tour of Pisgah National Forest. For the next two days I introduced them to the fast and flowy trails, gave them a proper lesson in what a death march hike a bike is all about, started an introductory class to bunnyhopping without clipless pedals, and taught them how to marvel, since I always had a camera close at hand.  Lessons in night riding were also conducted, as well as the joys of trying to repair a tubeless setup (ie covering yourself in the whitestuff) while in the woods in less than warm temperatures.   We hit up most of the classic trails, while leaving an excuse to comeback for more.
