Oh don't worry - I got your back there. I can act as a sort of embarrassment magnet and pull it away from you.

Besides, next year will be after a longggg winter-season-dry-spell-of-no-riding and it will take you that many more times of riding to get up to speed compared to if you just went now.

Lot of trails at MM too that you can ease yourself into the place with. Moosepackers, Brakeless and Race Of Spades are really fun trails too. We'll do Moosepackers on our XC bikes, it's more of a "mostly downhill XC singletrack" with a few flowy berms and a couple switchbacks.

Not sure I can make this year work unless the snow really holds off. Next couple of weekends I'm tied up with inventory at work. Then I'm off to Vegas the first week in November.

Two thoughts come to mind:

1) Man alive I wish I could ride like that - even to have 5% those skills and comfort level and trust in the bike and one's self. Jealous!

2) Isle of Skye - ok wow - apparently this place just got onto my bucket list of places to visit. This list is ever expanding. I need to .. um .. actually start travelling or something if I have a hope to cover the places I have to go visit for real!!!!
