Late night DC freeride

**longboardertwan** · 08-05-2009 08:09 AM

Hey we need to have a downhill session in DC before the summer is over. I have the desire to sketchily go way too fast through car infested, pot hole and manhole cover hell. If you know about the awesome runs in North West then you know what I'm talking about. Who's interested?

I was just down near howard recently....that's a big no. Maybe a cruise on the mall would be fun but big no to fast manhole hell.

but it looks like it would be fun.

It's not that bad hitting a manhole that's sunk two or more inches in the ground when you can't see it because it's in the shadows like every other obstacle. You just get a feel for where the big ones are and it just works. The harder part is threading the needle in the hairpin where you have to go in between like 4 or more man holes but luckily the perfect line is clear. Urban downhill is insane! If you can't handle this then don't ever go to ride in Montreal! That #### is so much more wack. Any ides on a day other than the 14th? That actually doesn't sound bad to me because I want to be back in Nova on the 15th for the long distance push thing.
