Song

Our theme song, "Hill Hopper," is a spin-off of the oldie, "Girl Watcher," adapted by ride organizer Mat Barringer. You can download "Hill Hopper" in wma or mp3 format.

Hill Hopper
I'm a hill hopper, I'm a hill hopper,
Watchin' hills go by, my, my, my
I'm a hill hopper, I'm a hill hopper,
Here comes one now, Mm, Mm, Mm

I was just a boy when I.... threw away my toys,
I found a new passtime to dwell on,
Now when I start to ride, my cares, I cast aside,
There is no hill I can't excel on,

I'm a hill hopper, I'm a hill hopper,
Watchin' hills roll by, my, my, my
I'm a hill hopper, I'm a hill hopper,
Let's hop one now

..........................

Ow this terrain is really stressin' my chain,
Could we please ride a little slower?
Crankin' round the bend, I can see my journey's end,
Wishin' that red barn was a little closer

I'm a hill hopper, I'm a hill hopper,
Watchin' hills roll by, my, my, my
I'm a hill hopper, I'm a hill hopper,
There goes one now, Mm, Mm, Mm
