Couple of wee rides this weekend, one more than the other - interspersed by O's 21st...
Saturday, T left early for a walk, and I lay about for a bit longer, getting out the door finally at 8.30. Toodled up through Vic, usual byways all the way to the top. Txted T here to see where she was. Into Thompson, nice flow then back up the road, getting the message she was on her way around the front of Sugarloaf, so I headed around the Summit and headed up into the Carpark. Wasn't long and she turned up so I toodled down the front to top of Vic with her, boffed off around the jumps and up Worm, seeing her go past then headed off on my own journey down Upper Fenceline, wending my way almost all the way down this, zigging and zagging mostly back and forth before heading up the steep gutser that heads up the true right of the valley, up through the middle of lower Cool Runnings, and up through Rad. At the skidder I bumped into Nick S from work and then I headed back up the steep to Brake Free and dropped off down through the rocks into the gums. Pleasantly surprised to find all the logs across my usual favourite were cleared - rangers or mtbers had used chainsaws by the looks of it. Nice flow down here then all the way down to 19th, across the road below for a bit then usual out up onto the corner and coast to Dogparkcarpark. Lovely flow down here, jumping the jumps and flowing out through all the way to the bottom and the clamber back to road.
A validly short 7.72 kms on 334 m climbed.
O's 21st Saturday night, left the car opposite where Dave was staying, so Sunday morning I took the Troll down slightly more interesting descendings then then across an urbane jaunt. 8.4 kms, 230 m descended, and 17 m climbed...
