Sept 25, 2010: Water Dog and never fails!

What a Water Dog ride! Well, we wanted a short, fun and technical ride and we got it. We climbed up the never ending switchbacks. 5.3 miles and 55 minutes of riding - with about 5 nasty falls for everyone except Chito! Endos and all.
Riders: June, Gene, Benny, Tim, Chito.
