White Memorial Night Ride - 11/04/08

bvibert · Nov 4, 2008

Not wanting to let a little lack of light deter my RAW rides I geared up this morning to head out anyway. I decided to hit White Memorial on the way home, since I was alone anyway. The purpose of this ride was to simply log some miles. I'm not at the point where I want to try anything remotely technical in the dark, by myself. I was successful in my mission; logging around 12.7 miles in just under 2 hours.

I'm really enjoying having the headlight so that I have the option to ride even with it getting dark so early.

Here's the track, not really a whole lot that hasn't been covered by previous tracks.

No, but I'm not sure I would have seen them if there were. I did hear the occasional rustling in the woods when I stopped though. I was surprised to come across two other riders though.

Post your next night ride and route in the Trip and Event forum so I can jump out of the bushes as you go by:-D

I was surprised when it ended up being that many miles. I was almost going to make it longer too...

For those that don't know; it's all easy miles over there for the most part. There's some good climbs, but it's all fire roads.
