    went out early this morning and got a 3-1/2 hour ride in before it got hot
    going out in the morning and Monday morning too, so will get a few more pics
    the hill in the pic is deceptive, you can't stop coming down, it's steeper than it looks
    but a beautiful place to ride, went from 5000' to 7800'
    I use my phone and it's in my pack, didn't stop but a couple times to get my bearings so pics are light

    I find that using my IPhone if I take a screenshot of the pic I want to post up it usually goes up correctly ... I don’t know why And I hold my phone sideways

    My Galaxy 7 camera can usually differentiate which way a picture needs to be oriented. If it misses, there is editing software to rotate correctly.

    well went out this morning for a ride early
    it rained a bit yesterday and felt cool this morning
    so after about 45 minutes of some amazing single track, came to a downhill
    I started down and must have hit a low limb I guess never felt it but about halfway down I grabbed some front brakes,,, nothing, so tried pumping still nothing
    skidded (rear brakes) all the way to the bottom and noticed my front brake line was out
    well that ended my ride
    now I need new gloves and a brake line,,, oh well started out fun
    could have been worse with no front brake and that steep,,, but survived IMG_7408.JPG IMG_7409.JPG IMG_7410.JPG View attachment 102276 IMG_7418.JPG

    I tried turning around, but for some reason it didn't want to upload to the bottom of the page. Finally got it.
