On The Pegs 52 GRANT BAYLOR ON RIDING IN TIGHT PALMETTOS “It’s like riding it in a tunnel when you go through the sections that are full of the palmettos. Just tight trail with palmettos hitting you in the face. Pretty soon you realize that there’s nothing to them. You can cut closer through them than what you realize and you can shave off a little time there just blowing through to the tree.” RUSSELL’S ALLIGATOR I always seem to struggle down here. I haven’t had very man good runs. N the reasons I wanted to come down. Lafferty’s always whooped my ass dow with the ride today. I had fun all day. Really happy just with my bike. Still ha got the suspension. Didn’t crash any all day. Didn’t stall it. Just kind of rode read the trail. They did a good job marking it, so that was nice to see. If you straight away. I think I had some good times even up there with Stew’s. Ste I, we were battling. It’s nice to do that with him. He’s coming in strong and together a lot so it’s nice to see him kind of take over. - RUSSELL BOBBITT
