There is an incredible amount of friction on those trails so you feel like you are pedaling through molasses. Most of those trails have since been re-surfaced with asphalt or concrete. __________________ 2010 Ford Ranger, extra cab, 2.3 liter http://www.stonemarmot.com Band's latest song/music video "I Sing Along"
