First off, out with Jet and O, up Conical Hill zig and zag. One grump said "you know it's not a riding track?" to which I replied, "yeah, but it's a good climb, and we're not abusing anyone".
Then into Eagle's Nest. Nice steep wee trail, with a few interesting features. Spotted a super tech line off to the left, which I'll look at next time. Across the walktrack into C-Line, which was even more tech. Steep tech corners, and on down onto Swoop for a blast out to the end. Next, up Timberline, steep bugger climb, but not too long, and up Red Rocks.
O was having enough of the climbing, so from the bottom we headed back around to the house and dropped him and Jet off.
Paul was back from his family ride, so joined me out for more. We headed across to and up Timberline, then up Jolliffe's, where the top difficult corner has a new line out further and back. Then, into the fun tight descent, good blat down this, across the bridge and up Big Foot. As usual, a good hefty climb, and a lot of heat, so we had a good rest at the top before hitting the DH, fun blast all the way down and back around into the forest and around and out the bottom. Next up, climb into Detox. Near the top we heard and saw a guy with fresh legs chasing us up. We kept our lead across the top and dropped him on the downhill. Then we headed straight into Mach 1 for the blast out to the end. More climbs, but less height in them, than my memory usually serves...
Finally, back across Camp Track into Western Link and back to the house. After this it was soaking time with the kids at the pool.
