Jarrod, a friend of mine from work, was kind enough to invite me to come Mountain Biking with him over the weekend. He even lent me his old bike so I had no excuse not to turn up!

A group of us travelled to the local bike trails, a place called Woodhill just around the corner from my normal kiting haunt Muriwai. $5 later and we were in the best and most fun trails I've ever ridden. Just the right amount of uphill and downhill sections with plenty of apparatus to play with as you went around. I even tried a few (small) jumps! Awesome fun.

I try something a little less hardcore!

Jarrod tries something a bit more technical!
