30 years riding, 15 years writing
Soggy trails today
Rain has been coming down since Monday, the clouds finally cleared enough this afternoon to get a short ride in.
Tried to ride out to the lake but they were in the process of preparing the new steel bridge for the pouring of concrete. No crossing over till Saturday, at the earliest.
The trails were very soggy, like pedaling on the beach, close to the water line. More hill work today, my thighs are starting to show muscle definition, damn that was fast.
distance 10.62 miles, average speed 10.9 mph.
Charlotte, NC
Spent 10 years in Charlotte, a block away from an entrance to the McAlpine Creek Greenway.
Switched to a mountain bike from the road bikes I was accustomed to riding for 15 years.
The time spent on these trails was most appreciated.
