40 this am. Quattro, I rode 15 of the miles on the RI Iron course...it was the rollers from mile 20-35. 1000 ft of elevation gain (up and down) over the 15 miles. 600 of it in first 7 miles. There are about 8-10 rollers each with about 80-140 ft of climbing...not hard just draining.

nice 1h30m ride on the mtb last night... it was gorgeous out... so nice that I turned by car right back around and went for a trail run for 30min.
today I wake up and hear car tires splashing on the road.. eh

Yes, what a difference a day makes. Did you ride Mianus?

[cbcbd]

Yep. I had missed the last couple days earlier this week and was itching to get out yesterday... and it was good

There were a couple big groups in there yesterday... probably around 15 bikes total!!

Finally got back out on the MTB yesterday after work. I got to the trail head only to realize that I forgot to pick up some water on the way. NOT a good way to start the season. I decided to head out for a 30 minute or so ride anyway. The ride felt great, aside from feeling a bit nauseous at the midway point and being very thirsty. I felt like I was riding as good as I was when I stopped riding in the fall. That's probably not true, but I felt that way.

I got out for the first time in nearly 2 years yesterday. I think I only actually MTBed a few times prior anyway. But I did better yesterday than I did the last time I was out. Didn't have to stop on any of the hills that I took (except when I got a phone call right at the start of the final hill). The only down side was that I lost my keys on the trail and ended up backtracking when I really wanted to be done. So I guess that added a couple miles to the total (AND I found my keys!). I'm guessing somewhere around 7 miles total yesterday. But I could be off by a couple.

I don't do any crazy stuff, but it was a lot of fun. Went faster than before and right over the obstacles instead of trying to avoid. Maybe there's hope for me yet in picking up this sport. Now I just need to assemble an emergency kit and learn how to fix my own bike in case something happens while I'm on the trail...
