Write Up:Too hot for me....+28 to start, +32 with humidity, trails were dry and
fast. Total ride was 17km, 1700ft of elevation gain. Started to get
dark at about 8:45pm so we hurried back, no lights were needed.
Manuel must have passed me going up about half a dozen times, great
fitness, good job. Marty was fighting a cold and near the end began
to dehydrate even after drinking over 2.5 liters of water. Coming
back leading I seen two brown critters on the side of the trail in the
brush with backs about 2.5 to 3" tall. They moved very quickly along
the ground and I could swear they were some sort of cat, definitely
not a pair of dogs or small dear. We all made it back together with
only a few minor scratches but no spills. Another great ride, see you
guys again soon. It's not the mountains but it's still a fair bit of
climbing and technical trails.
Cut and paste the following link to see Marty's GO-PRO video of our
ride, awesome job Marty!!
