Sorry for the sideway picture, but couldn't figure out how to rotate it in this blogging system. Anyway, just a picture to highlight my new addiction to mountain biking. The trails were beginning to dry out early this week which lead to three good rides. Unfortunately, it's rained again and is in the forecast for the next few days which slows the progress.
I am realizing that mountain biking is difficult. It's like riding a bike through sand at times and like constant sprinting when you hit a hill. I'm glad I have a lot of experience riding trails from my dirt bike years growing up. I upgraded to clip in pedals in which your shoes actually click into your pedals and become attached for those unaware of serious biking. So far it's not as difficult or scary as I was anticipating, but I'm sure I'm in for an epic crash in which I can't get my feet unattached soon enough.
So, anyone that wants to begin riding, let me know. I'm hoping to ride 4-5 times a week or more. We'll see though.
