I was glad to meet Jesse "RayGunn" at the class and had a great time on the trails. Here is a short video of the recovery he was describing.

Thanks for posting that! I'm glad you didn't get the shot of me falling down, that trail was steeper than it looks and really slippery in Vans.

I finally for rid of that awful squeak. It was the ball join in my new UCA's. Just took some lubrication on that point and it's gone. Sure was embarrassing while it was happening though! :lol:

Technical side note:

If those are uniballs on the UCAs, you should use a dry graphite lubricant or teflon lubricant on them, to preserve their protective coating....
