Saturday's Ride



Well NK, DEA & I got in a pretty descent Mt ride. Climbed Cranmore via the access road and went over the connector trail and down the Hurricane. We then dropped over the back side of Hurricane for a fun and fast ride down. I love disk brakes. We rode the road for a bit til we found part of the snowmobile network. My drivetrain was clean til then. We encountered a little bit o mud to say the least. Looking forward to testing out the trail bootey I found, how could someone leave "The Best of Snoop Dog" laying on the trail?

Well we didn't make it all the way back to Redstone via the snowmobile netowrk but eventually found our way and took the power lines over to Sticks n Stones where NK headed home for some needed rest & recovery. DEA and I headed up Peaked a ways and ended up coming down near Artist Falls and eventually by the access road. We wanted to get in some more mileage so we went over to Whitaker Woods and cruised around there til we were done. Overall we got in about 6 hours on the bike, 36+ miles of riding, and 4,368 feet of climbing.

My knees are a little sore but the legs still had a little bit of life left. Hopefully we are on track for Jay. I would like to try a long ride on a day where it didn't rain the entire 6+ hours. Guess that's just fantasy though. Well fellas, where we going next weekend?
