Met up with Jeff for a ride around the rez this morning. Did pretty much the same loop that I've been doing there, with a variation the avoids that big climb back up to the fence line by the end of the big dike. Not sure how much I like that option, in a way I kind missed the climb. Pretty uneventful ride. There was plenty of people out there on bikes today though.

I forget what Jeff said the mileage was, 9.58 maybe??, in a little under 2 hours. It wasn't quite a Woodcore pace, but we moved along pretty well I think. I tried a few new to me rollers and generally had a fun time playing on stuff. All in all a great ride.

Steve, glad the back is feeling a better. Never worry about slowing me down, I'm almost always looking for an excuse to stop and rest. ;)

did u hit that single track thats really twisty after the ridge stuff when u are heading north? there are some awesome slick rock sections on that and then like 4 rollers if u link them right (kinda just left of the main singletrack). i put up a bridge but its prolly gone by now, was pretty skinny and semi A-frame shape. gotta get down there again, but its tough leaving this place ;-).

So you built that! If we're talking the same turkey it's still there and yes I love that section of trail with all the rollers. :beer:
