Jordan took this picture of the ride/walk for Danielle Nacu, a week after Danielle was killed in an accident, when a driver opened the car door without looking over her shoulder first.

You're in the zone. You are flowing down the trail with a smile on face when you come up on a tight set of switch backs. You make a small mistake on the first corner and in the second corner you have to dab. By the fourth corner you're frustrated and by the fifth you've stopped having fun. This trail would be perfect if it wasn't for that stupid section of switch backs.
