Our Community...


We had a really good ride today. An old friend was in town, Greg Burbidge was down from New Hampshire for the weekend. Also along for the ride was, Matt run Forrest Mike K Man, Kurtee, and Alan. The trails were dry and fast. We hit all of Middle Run, the Judge and White Clay. Greg hasn't ridden these trails in 2 years so he got to see a lot of new stuff. Gregg also mentioned how lucky we were to have a group like this to ride with. It is something we tend to take for granted. Our little community is really quite impressive. Not only do we have some of the finest trails right at our doorstep, we have some of the finest people to share them with.

I took a few minutes and thought about this. We truly are lucky.
Tomorrow should be another fun group ride, lots of joking and laughing along with some super fun riding.

Rock on,
Buddy

Not for Me...

Tonight I met up with Matt run Forrest for an early ride at White Clay/Middle Run. I was hoping to have a little zip tonight. I was still pushing two to one, I started off feeling pretty good, but that didn't last long. I guess two to one isn't for me. I just feel slow pushing that gear. I can never seem to get on top of it. I am sure given enough time I would get used to it, but I like how I feel with a plus one gear.

One good thing about tonight was the trails were awesome. Plus this was the first time in a while that Matt and I tried to hammer each other into the ground. It did feel good to just ride fast the whole time.

Well that's all floks,
Buddy
