Hanover ride

Today was WARM. And sunny. We were overheating on the first loop. For the second half we switched to short sleeves. Ah much better.

Back to the first loop, Pete was BAM! out of the Gate. It's amazing how each ride we are getting more in shape, and improving our skills, and our trail knowledge. Stuff that we would walk over, now we are riding right through it, well at least Pete is.

Today we found it, as Pete called it, the trail of tears and lost gears. For part of the second loop we explored some single track. There was evidence of riders before us. They must be very good, cause we were getting our buts handed to us by this trail. This trail snakes its way in and out along a stone wall. For us this is a trail to be avoided.

Stopped by on the way home to Dave's Rockland Bike shop. This guy knows bikes! This guy is a master Jedi of the 9th order of something. Stop by, you will understand what I mean. It was a fun visit, I picked up a new Hydro Pack.
