Today we did a variation of one of my favorite rides. Starting in Stowe we ride trail and some road out to Morrisville and back. Last time we did the ride it was about 32 miles. Big J has the GPS data, but I think that's right. Today we added an additional hour of single track that I hadn't ridden in a few years, and a few more road miles. Total was somewhere around 40 miles, 6.5 hours, with about 3 10 minute breaks.
Started in the rain, which cleared by the time we hit maple run. A few minutes later it was sunny, cool, puffy white clouds. The trails were moist. Roots were treacherously slick and the soil was greasy. It made for some double black diamond descending. I was an epic ride, finished of with 2 switch backs and 6 slices of Pizza from Pie in the Sky. Totally worked. Felt like fall this afternoon. I love my bike.
