"The Yin and Yang of downhill Mountain Biking"

Written by: Rafa Infante 

Mountain biking can be an exhilarating experience that combines skill, endurance, and a love for the outdoors. Rafaelo Infante and Chris Gaeta recently embarked on a mountain biking adventure in the foothills of Boulder, in search of the elusive bugle. 

While they didn't spot an elk, they did come across something equally cute - a deer.

As a Coalatree ambassador, Rafaelo was equipped with his favorite gear, including the Barrage Tech shell and quick dry shirt. The Barrage Tech shell is perfect for spring and fall mountain bike missions, keeping the rider dry and comfortable in any weather.

The rain during their ride made for epic conditions and prime bugling, adding to the excitement of the ride. However, the highlight of their adventure was the cute deer they spotted. The graceful creature added an extra dimension to their ride and made it truly memorable.

On a scale of 1-10, the cuteness factor of the deer is undoubtedly a 10. The sight of the majestic animal, with its big brown eyes and delicate frame, was been a breathtaking experience. The ability to mix such a high adrenaline and fast sport with the stillness and tranquility of nature adds to the allure of incredible adventures like this. 

Overall, this outing was a fantastic time, especially with the combination of great gear, challenging conditions, and unexpected wildlife making for an unforgettable ride. 

Whether you're an experienced rider or a beginner, exploring the trails in the mountains is always a great way to experience the beauty of nature and challenge yourself in new ways.
