Man and here I was thinking that the little 5 footer i ran into at boyette was going to get me.  Obviously big mama is not to be messed with.

Does Big Momma make a regular trail apperance or is it a once in a while sort of thing?
I'm just glad I let someone else go first!

I've only seen her a few times in 70+ rides, but I don't go out of my way looking either! ;D

I seem to remember a bike shop in Dunedin that has a pic of someone on the fingers riding over big momma. Anyone else seen it?

Riding above her on the trail, bunny-hopping her, or riding over her like you would a log?

Riding down one of the hills on one of the fingers it looked like and then bunny hopping her.

I finally rode Poop Loop for the first time yesterday on my rigid single speed...first time taking this bike out to Alafia.  I cleared everything except the logs (first time out on the loop and I wanted to walk them) and I ran out of ass at the very top of the rooty hill directly afterwards (next time I know to get a bit more speed/momentum before attempeting the ascent).  The loop is a great addition to an already fantastic trail.  No gators seen, but I think we heard a few croaking throughout the day.
