Shortest Epic Ever

Yesterday turned out to be the shortest epic mountain bike ride in history.  Brian, Spencer, Ryan, and I headed out French's Gulch headed to the land of bliss singletrack descents.  We were spinning along up the hill and at about th 20 minute mark, mother nature decided to hurl hail at us the size of M&Ms.  We ended up takign cover underneath a bunch of trees:

We ended up hanging out for about 30 minutes as it continued and started to turn the trail white!

It let up for a little bit, but it was just enough to get us out from our shelter so that she could throw more at us.  After taking shelter in the woods and a couple close lightning strikes we decided to fly down the hill and back to the truck.  By the time we reached the truck we were all so cold and beaten from being pelted with hail.  After having to bail on our last ride out here, we decided to improve our moods by hitting up the Breck Brewery!  That helped!  We are leaving today and next up will be Eau Claire!
