Loved today’s ride. Some days things just seem to float along, you’d reckon if you looked down the tires would be magically hovering above the ground. I guess it offsets the days when you just seem to be smashing into everything. (more…)

Had a great day in the bush, working on a short alternative section of trail. I’d only planned to spend an hour or so out there but couldn’t resist — beautiful Spring day, bush packed with flowers, and if I could get the first pass as the section done the rain forecast in the next few days should settle it down nicely… perfect!
