I was mashing away at the hills at Round Valley today and I whipped out the FS bike again with my hope pro II hubs and man when I'd bomb down the hills the hikers ahead would scatter like a good 100 feet before I got close :getsome: so eventually I would purposely coast whenever I passed someone to let them know I was coming. To make up for the fright I would always pass with a big smile and lots of hellos. People seem to respond well to that
I wish I had a camera, one chick was there with her BF/Friend and she literally ran off the trail, I was barely moving at that point but the noise scared her I guess I stopped and wanted to say sorry about the fright but she was just laughing hysterically at that point. Overall fun ride. I cut it short a bit because my knee was acting up but RV is going to be my new stomping grounds. A couple months of this and I'll be mashing up hills everywhere with no trouble.
