I detest the ragazines, even the oft-revered Dirt Rag. So my bro gets
me a subscription to the Rag for a Christmas present. I'm sitting here, flipping through the first one to arrive and laughing at all of the stupid BS in its pages. Of course there a few things of substance, way more than the other lameo rags. I get near the back of this thing and in the Rider's Eye section, see a familiar sight. It's a full page photo of Angry Man and Gordon The Wonder Dog at the waterfall on the Edge Loop, taken by Mrs Angry. One of the few things of substance in a World gone mad with ads and propaganda aimed at the feeble. JD |

Dirt Rag often aggravates me because for something professing to be "The Mountain Bike Forum", they sure delve into the roadie/messenger/urban bike wierdo side of things quite a bit. But they do redeem themselves sometimes. One of the reasons that photo caught my eye is because a friend and I are planning a trip out to GJ/Fruita some time in late April/Early May. What trails would you recommend for some flat-landers like us to have fun on without killing ourselves? Recommendations for lodging, food, and bike rentals would be appreciated too. Keith. |

Keith, you know I'll drop you the goods. In fact, I may be in the AO around that time. That photo is kind of old because Angry broke that frame about four years ago. I'm racking my brain to remember if I was there when that particular photo was taken. We used to do a lot of out & back rides to the waterfall, especially when it was crowded at the closer in trails on the weekends. Either way, it brought back a lot of great memories of good times with the best of friends. JD |

I met a guy up in the mtns the other day from GJ, who worked with your former "customers or clients", shall we say. He thought he might have run across you, & he remembers fondly the Book Cliffs, Kokoepelli, etc. CDB |
