Dear Self,

You did your very first mountain bike trail today. You didn't fall off, hit a tree, or wipe out during tight turns. I know I wasn't fast but there wasn't anyone else on the trail but DH and my son making it less stressful.

It's too bad by the time we got there it was nearly dark and only had a about a 1/2 hour or so to ride. Next time I'll do the entire trail unless I get ran over by far more experienced riders.

It sucks not being able to take someone else so I can ride during the day. DH doesn't get off from work until 4:30pm and it's an hour up to the trail.

If anyone happens to live in/near Omaha and needs someone to ride with, I'm around.
