La La Shan Rewound
Three Photographers - Eight Photos Each
it was the second time for patrick oleary and dennis
flood. first time for stephen wilde. flood had enough pb&j sandwiches.
oleary had enough energy in. wilde didn't have enough Pringles.
la la shan trail. 7 riders. 3 minds working and overworking
angles in unison achieving one unit of work. covering a short but
long, 18 singletrack km's of at-times, vertigo
induced chills, and of course some spills. ambling past 1400 year-old
trees. blazing across 6 year-old rickety ladder bridges spanning
gaps and creek ravines. heaving steeds over and through vines and
logs. and, negotiating the final 18kms of road riding on empty bellies.
flood, oleary, and wilde joined chu, mchale, hess,
and quirk on la la shan supported.
here is how the day played its course. and how the
day played with our minds and stomachs. sw.
