Hey - that was a fun ride today - it was aka_Kim, Miffy'sFuji (and her friend Chris), Winddance (who had to leave us early due to a migraine ), and me. We got off to a little bit of a late start because the ride organizer (um, that would be me!) forgot the maps at home! And than as it turned out, we didn't really even need them.

According to my computer, we did just under 24 miles, with just under 2400 ft of climbing. My average speed for the whole ride was 9 mph - and I think this was the first time I've gone all the way up Pinehust above 3 mph the whole way! Everyone was on mountain bikes except me - that's got to be hard work!

It was great climbing weather (for me, that is) - cool, cloudy, not very windy. And the descending was a blast! And Kim and I saw a fox as we came down Skyline - wow - I've never seen a fox so close before.

Thanks for coming along, you guys - I had a great time!
