I've been wanting to scope out the park for awhile now, to see if there is a good connector trail I can use instead of riding the road on my Mtn Bike.
If there is anything I've learned about my enthusiam for getting out on my bike it's this- I hate ridding a Mtn Bike on the road. It just seems to me like cutting a 2x4 with a hacksaw, it's just not the right tool for the job. I have no aversion to ridding a road bike on the road, I guess, I haven't really ever done it. I owned a road bike once for about 3 months, it was sweet. A custom painted test of the new paint booth at the Specialized distribution center, one of a kind, SWORKS. If I remember right it paid for our first fridge and part of our down payment.
Back to my evening walk, I did happen to find some sweet single track that I can ride to connect the road loop I rode Tueday. It should make for a much more enjoyable ride that doesn't conflict with my anti road ethics as much.
Here is a cool pic I took of the little pond at the end of the single track.
What a great evening, and to think, I have been feeling down on myself all day for a moment of weakness. But if it were not for the guilt of eating that damn hotdog for lunch I would never have gotten off the couch tonight.

I agree sometimes we have to eat a few hot dogs to keep us motivated to get off the couch. My problem is I eat the hot dog and then continue to sit my big butt on the couch.
ReplyDeleteI don't know, Nate... one hot dog is pretty serious! Actually... I'm very proud of you! You remind me of your Dad when you set your mind to something... conquer life long battles one day at a time.
