Saturday Morning Stooge Date

Had a ridey-walky date with T. 

Rode up the back of the houses, then on up to the upper dog park carpark with her and we went our separate ways.  She went over and I went up.  

Just round the corner from the next carpark I dropped into the woods to climb up under the trees, across at 19th, then took in all the singletrack I usually descend to this point. Had to walk a couple corners in the gums, and the rocks, but surprisingly little. Thomson's #1 down and back up then jumpy into Worm and on around the Traverse, stopping a couple of times to let riders through. 

Tracked where T was and dropped off down Huntsbury DH to find her down AliExpress... Rode back up the 4wd with her to where she turned off (into where I'd come down), and I headed up the main track to the top of Huntsbury/Vernon and grabbed the Traverse back. Caught her again above Lavaflow (a few riders riding through as we spoke) and then we went our separate ways. Chased the riders for a bit, basically catching them up, then stopped to give them some space.  Nice flow rest of the way, straight into the jumps, Rabbit, Rocks Pines Gums, all the way down. Then across into the Newby for a lovely hoon home.

Nearly 12 kms and 438 m climbed.
