I got my shoulder ‘working’ just in time to keep my Pinnacle attendance streak alive. I think this is 7 or 8 years in a row for me. I showed up sporting at least an extra 200 grams in tape holding my body together and its a good thing I did because CARBON IS STIFF.
My result would probably best be described as ‘meh’ but I was just happy to be back out on dirt even though I got thoroughly thrashed. Pro Tip: The Pinnacle is not the best way to ease back into riding.
I’ll be doing some deep meditation and thought over the next few weeks about how badly I beat myself up and what I should do about that. HTFU? Return to nice ‘comfortable’ steel? Actually get some suspension??? Stay tuned…
