mountain biking

        When I was in college, my room mate Viet and I loved to go mountain biking. Every weekend we would pack up our bikes and gear, and head up to a different mountain biking trail. Viet and I have been friends since junior high school, and he even set me up with my wife Mari in high school. He has always been my best friend, and I am so happy to have such an amazing person in my life.
        Every time Viet and I went mountain biking, our main goal was to have fun, spend quality time together, and race. Viet and I are always extremely competitive against each other, and that is also true with us on mountain bikes. We would always have a count down from 3, and on 1, we would begin the race. It would be over once we got to the end of the trail, or the sun went down. He and I have a really hard time beating the other person, because our physical abilities are so well matched. At the end of the day, it was all about having fun.
