I have been relegated to a downhill-mountain-bike shuttle chauffeur and aerial videographer for my son and grandson. I drive them to the top of the mountain behind our house and they roll all the way down, a 4,000′ vertical drop. They tell me its tiring, yet it’s all downhill. Go figure.
I think I raised my son to be too soft and he, in turn, raised his son to be too soft. When I used to mountain bike, I went uphill and downhill. No shuttles back then. It’s just like when I used to have to walk 10-miles to and from school (uphill both ways!).
Anyway, the pay for my services sucks, but I’m still hoping these punks will tip well.
A guy can dream can’t he?
