Six Shooter Sam!
Originally uploaded by honemastert

Great weather today for a ride! Took a day off, and headed east to Globe AZ for a downhill run on SixShooter Canyon Trail. Unfortunately.... part of the rear triangle on my Titus Motolite snapped. Pure stress fracture, or metal fatigue? (very clean break) Bummer.. had to end the run early and head home, while everyone else took another trip down.

This is a great trail, just an hour and a half east of Phoenix!


Thanks Sam for the middle finger, quite appropriate!

Bailed off the upper part when we hit the road, and
took it all the way back down, while the other guys
finished up the lower part (check dam) portion.

Great fun while it lasted!

Looks like I'm gonna tear into the rear triangle to
see if I can go beg someone at Titus to send me a
replacement.

Fun day! thanks guys, and hope you all had a
great second run
