In this video, I ride with my two biking buddies, Rob and Max. We chose to ride a proper black route on this day, which we called Black Friday. A day of "proper" mountain biking.

It also happened to be Max's 48th birthday, and that got me thinking about just how fast Max and Rob (52) still are! Needless to say, it gives me a lot of hope for my own future mountain biking.

Anyway, I'm super grateful to have good friends that are able to join me on some of my adventures😊
