I did a big 20 mile mt bike ride this morning with my cousin Jordan. It was a lot of fun but by then last 4 or so miles both of us were trashed and could barely peddle back to the bikes. We rode from the trailhead in Bloomington up the Bear Paw trail to the water tank then down and over to do the Zen trail loop. At the end of this section I got a flat and kept pumping it up and riding. Then finally the slim in the tube filled the hole and I was able to keep riding. After Zen we rode up and did part of the Barrel trail with all the big jumps. Then over to Bear Paw and back down to the Jeep. It was a solid 3+ hour workout that left me dead by the end. We both ran out of water and were just hanging by a thread while trying to finish. Anyways it was good to get out and ride with Jordan and see his new bike. He's down from Logan for the weekend so I might catch a ride with him tomorrow.... depending on how the recovery goes this afternoon. |
