Tribal Moon goes
hand in hand with mountain biking. In this, another form
of thrill release, one takes risks decending down
mountain passes, unexpected drops, along with ice
acceleration. It gives me the feeling of wanting to jump
out of my skin.

Knowledge
comes from experience, skill comes from commitment &
dedication. In one form, you are your limits. Losing a
soul in your journey means remapping your route with more
influential fuel. Load the furnace & shell out the
logs one by two, challenge yourself daily, search for the
physical & mental foods that suits you best. Draw in
the energy at your work station, store the fuel &
release in the proper direction no harm done...Here it
comes.
