Today was often wet, which was fine as we were staying in the same accommodation as yesterday. And above #Strontian, there's a good place for some easy #mountainBiking, with a rocky path, a #singleTrack one and great views.
Tomorrow due to be dryer, we'll be off to #Glencoe by the road and #ferry - which accepts only #foot passengers and #cyclists at present!

8y ago I bought a used 26” Cannondale Scalpel Lefty XC racing bike with a slightly too small frame.
I was a novice mountain biker. When I told my mentors the bike was trying to throw me head first they scoffed.
8y later I know I was right. Trust your experience!
I do like that ornery bike though. I ride it often on blue trails where my modern bike is overkill. It punishes mistakes harshly so helps me improve.

Rode 32 miles of chunky gravel with some #singletrack mixed in on the skinny tires today - perfect day for a #ride! 🚲🍻🤘 #gravelride #coffeerun #surlybridgeclub #surlybikes #beersimminent

Obligé de solder les congés avant la fin du mois, trop dur.
Bilan de journée: 118 km de single-track et pistes en stabilisé. Avec premières baignades de la saison dans le lac. Je n'ai croisé quasiment personne.
Je vous ai déjà dis que j'adore ce genre de sorties gravel ?

Doing trail work today so again reflected that mountain biking is a rare red-blue common ground. Bad ass options, nature, car-free but needs cars, social, physical, none of the politics of city bike paths, free of charge mostly.
Walton family pays for a lot of trail. Red states and burbs build trails; some great mountain biking in low income terrain rich red states. Abandoned mines make good trail.
Singletrack is having a moment.

In 1986 the #EastBayRegionalParkDistrict (#EBRPD) was trying to decide what to do with #MountainBikes. This article, OUTLAWING OFF-ROAD RIDING, Winning Magazine, May 1986 captures those discussions.

Getting down the switchbacks is quite a ride, especially with all the rain damage to the trail. It's a steep drop, though it is possible to climb it from the bottom. I've managed to clean the entire hill three times in the 15 years I've been riding it.
The rockslide washout looked more scary than riding it turned out to be. The truly frightening part was right near the bottom, past the bucolic singletrack in the trees. Deep rain ruts - a few inches to nearly a foot deep - criscross the entire trail in the last steep part. Barely avoided a Superman over the bars. Twice.
Even though I was riding solo, getting down that nasty bit invoked a nervous but hearty laugh and a big grin. The epitome of a "shits and grins" moment.
The best kind of ride!

Classic snow biking in Pattee Canyon. Beautiful day. Perfect conditions.

For #SilentSunday some views from a #Sunday #bikeride
Not today's ride I must add, from last Autumn. Today's ride, which I'm about to start, will be much colder outside, overcast with the cows staying sheltered. Still, a good day for #cycling
Is #CyclingSunday a thing on #mastodon ?

Not a bad day for a 55km #MTB ride finished off with some #singletrack goodness 😝 Even had some dusty trails 😳

I’m finding more ways to fit a “hitter” (smaller glass straight pipe) into daily routines. I think will be part of most of my bike rides this year — except rides where I’m smoking more!

I don't know how many kids we had at #ChinaCamp in #Marin county yesterday, as part of the away #mtb ride for the #OaklandDevo middle school mtb club, but my group, 'blue 2,' one of eight, had 9 kids in it. We've got 94 riding #MountainBikes this season. We had fun, everyone returned safe, with more skills and big smiles.

How it started... how it's going...
Another year part of the most amazing #tailwindcoreteam ambassador team. I am thankful and excited.
What started off as a dream of spending time outdoors and standing on top of mountains has turned into a full-time job. It's been a wild ride and it's just getting started.

I guess I got enough sleep, or maybe it was all the #coffee, but I had a helluva great ride today all over town, from Scott’s Addition to the Near West End, Carytown to the old pump house (with a bit of #SingleTrack!), Byrd Park to downtown, and Jackson Wars before heading home through VCU.

Got out for a little bit of winter #SingleTrack. Thanks to all the hikers packing down the snow and making #mountainbiking these trails possible. #MissoulaMT #Photomonday
