If there’s one thing I’ve missed over the last few years it was the massive Sheep Hills sessions of 30 + riders and the huge trains that ensue… Well, I’m very happy to report that Sheep has definitely still has it’s magic in full effect!

It’s crazy, everything has changed… the bikes, the riders, the style of the jumps. Everything!!! But, nothing has changed!!! Everyday the trails and weather permit there’s a good size session and everyone is there for the same reason… to have fun on their bikes no matter the size.

Here’s a few pics from the last days before today’s all day downpour with more coming all week…
Oh well, I’m glad I got to ride until the rain started.

I don’t know this guy but he throws a Griz air against a rad sky at night.

Pedro has gone from a weird little kid to weird big kid with a talent for riding anything with style and building rat rods.

Gee Atherton took sometime out of his abdominal training to come enjoy some Sheep Dirt just before the week long downpour… Damn you El Nino!!!

Dan Atherton is the only guy who does as many laps as I do in a day at the trails… and more.
Dan is a shredder!

Jake Kinney made it up from SD and threw down until he came up short on K.O.D. and choppered his fork… ouch.

Devin cracks the whip for Eiichi’s lens

Eiichi catches me mid, “Holy ffffff!!!” during a first run over-shoot into a very tight left hand hairpin on K.O.D.

Just a guess but I think Zeus likes it here.

Zeus has Sheep Hill wired… he’s actually able to keep up with me for an entire lap… sometimes catching me in the “Kiddie Pack” berm.
