Night and Day...

Thursday night Matt was and I were planning a ride at Middle Run, but old Todd El Presidente, invited us to for a rare Fair Hill night ride. I couldn't resist. Matt ended up not making it because of work. I got there a little early and ran into John Williams aka Bike Line Todd. We did a little loop then met up with the rest of the group. Todd immediately said we were riding in 2 groups and He John and I were off. It was really cool riding there at night. It seemed very different. The trails seemed longer and I often found myself wondering where we were. Todd put together a nice loop and kept a steady pace. Lot's O' Fun. I hope I get the opportunity again.


Today we rode Fair Hill again but we had to change from our usual meeting place because of a dog sledding event. The group was Matt run Forrest, Kurtee, and John C. It was a very brisk morning and the trails were frozen solid which made them nice and fast. We didn't ride the usual stuff which was way cool. I sometimes forget just how many trails there are at Fair Hill. It was nice to ride some of the less traveled stuff. Not to mention I was feeling pretty good for the 3rd straight ride. I am not sure but I think it has something to do with not cleaning my bike lately.

Well I must go, I have another ride tomorrow and I have to get on with the carbo loading!

Cheers,
Buddy

French Creek and Monday Night Football...

There are a few places I ride that I find myself saying "I need to ride there more" French Creek is one of those places. Matt and I hooked up with a few of the Beans boys for a nice ride on Sunday. Ryan, Craig and Rob rounded out our little group. The trails were great and super fun as always. I even made the climb from Miller's point for the first time. After a couple of hours of fun in the rocks Matt and I went to Victory for some lunch. I enjoyed my cask conditioned Hop Wallop and chicken cheese steak. I don't think there is a better place to end a ride.

Last night I was in Philly for the Eagles Monday Night game. It was a blast, mainly because they won. The bad part was after. The traffic getting out seems to get worse every time. Last night we were forced to turn away from 95 and ended up a little lost in the city. I didn't get home until almost 3:00am. Good thing I was off today.

Well that is enough rambling for now,
Cheers,
Buddy
