Hollie and I headed up to Downieville this morning. There is all this hype about D-ville, I have never got it, but I am slow, so we went to check it out. Oh, we were the only people who DID NOT SHUTTLE. We rode to Sierra City to get on the trail, that adds 12 miles, and we actually rode up the trail all the way to packers saddle. Everyone else gets in a van and drives to packer. What is up with that? Oh right, its all down hill from packers. From Downieville to packers you gain 5000 ft elevation. Its awesome, its hard, its beautiful...its worth the ride. The other d-ville rule we broke, we rode hard tails. We were the only ones on hard tails, but we were blowing by these guys with 8" travel bikes with sooo much armor on they could have been at the nights of the round table.
What ever! It was still a ton of fun, here are some pics
