## My Tsali Mountain Bike Trip

Tsali is a system of mountain bike trails in western North Carolina on the edge of the Smoky Mountains. I recently took a trip there with a couple of friends. Following is a picture from the trip:

In these photos, I'm catching a little air off of a jump located on the Right Loop of the Tsali trail, as well as cruising by Fontana Lake on the Left Loop. The jump picture shows the last in a series that provided a change of pace from the fast descents and smooth climbs. The cruise picture shows how the water in the lake was lowered due to dam maintenance.
