Something to aspire to...

You all know that the Rats are extreme. Well here's the proof - detailed maps showing the incredible distances and elevations these guys conquer in almost less than a day...

Don't feel that you'll never be able to achieve this level of expertise - remember the TrailRats are experienced weekend heroes, it takes many hours of practice and determination to look this good.

Go forth and ride, our young apprentici..

A muddy day for Bri-Rat

This is just a test blog thing.... Ya know, sometimes your equipment just lets you down.. such was the case for Bri-Rat on the last Ratventure through the muds of Northern CA when the GT suspension fork on his trusty steed gave up, and flung our Bri through the air and shoulder-first into a right mess.

As usual, in these situations, Bri saw the humour hiding under the filth and took it all very well - not that he was given too much choice considering the raucous laughter from his riding colleagues...

More photos of the EXTREME action here ...and, if you think you can handle it - below the Rats demonstrate that you don't have to be skillful or physically fit, to handle a bike with style and finess. Shown in glorious video action:

Deep water? No problem

Showing the mud who's boss!!
