The morning after at the Lone Pine campground.

We all slept outside that night amidst loud people and quacking ducks.

Prepping the bike for the ride later.

It was still a long drive...

...from Lone Pine to Tahoe...

...and digital film's free...

...so why not take some pics...

...of Brian's car...

...against some nice scenery?

Making final preparations...

...at the Flume Trail trailhead.

Riding along Marlette Lake.

Still on the Flume Trail, taking a breather.

The final long descent to the shuttle pick-up point.

The campsite that night in the parking lot of a campground near the Downieville trailhead.

Judy tries to stay warm by doing the Funky Chicken Hop.

Git back bitch! Judy's armored up and ready for battle!

Just about ready to ride.

Hopefully that's mud. If it's a vegetarian explosion, it's a good thing Aaron's riding in Brian's car.

Brian realizes he has a flat on his rear tire.

Judy cruises up to the bridge.

Stopping to rest those brake fingers.

Judy zooms on down.

Taking a break to smile for the camera.

Judy and I took a hike while Aaron and Brian rode Downieville a second time.

Cool view of three lakes.

Luckily we found another hiking couple who snapped a shot of both of us.

Campsite near Tahoe's Northstar resort.

Fixin' up the bikes.

The socks say it all: Judy's ready for some serious mad downhillin'.

Making some final adjustments before the park opens.
