Feeling a little better, and got the bike dialed in a bit more. Gorgeous day for a ride, and the big boy felt the need for speed a bit. I let a curious rider we caught try the Kodiak, but Brody freaked, clearly saying "I run with that bike".
We also met Mr Porkie, sitting right in the middle of the short singletrack from the conservation area to Thinker's Hill. Luckily the big guy was no trouble as we encouraged porkie to climb a tree. Big change from his first encounter 4 years ago when I couldn't drag him off one and had to carry him out.
