Quick summary of tonights trail ride

I just returned from the trail ride.

In summary: I now have one arm with scratches on it from the hanging briar’s along the trail. When I showed the guys they both said ooooh. Removed a couple of briar’s from arm. Wheels on bike slid off the trail causing me to fall right down. Knee took the most impact. Minor cut on knee. One co-worker/rider looked as if he might have a heart attack at any moment at various points on the ride. He persevered. Lots of tight turns going up hill over logs and tree roots. Big dog came running out of the woods and growled a little. Dog ran off.  Managed creek crossings and even a rock drop off. Was slapped in the face by lots of overgrown vegetation. Closed my eyes many times to avoid briar’s in the eyes. Closed eyes made it hard to see the trail.

Fun was had by all.

End summary.

I need a bath bad.

Monday morning running on late

It seems I have finally ceased coughing myself into the next room. Thank goodness for small things. I didn’t take too many photos on vacation. However this is one I really like…
