Words and photos by Brian Barnhart

The Eastside crew knows how to hold it down. They get stuff done when they need to, and have as much fun as they can when the work is done. I feel lucky to be a part of their trail family when I’m in Austin. We shared a lot of good laps in these woods this past season. I felt an urgency to document the good times we were having together, and it was a true privilege to do so. Incase I don’t make it back down for next season, I’m glad I have these photos to keep the stoke high.
