R & R
Cross practice on Thursday was attended by a modest crowd despite the beautiful weather. YoungZack, Josh, Marco, K-Dogg, JimmyD, and later, AtD and Crazy.
We rode around a bit then each did 2 TTS probably bit over 1K long. Started at the top of the big hill. The grass was hard and bumpy. It finished with a run/ride back up the monster. JimmyD rocked it, Crazy tried to eat the 2nd barrier, I rode like a fat ol' tired flatlander. Still a great workout. K-Dogg has some post ride pics up here.
Riding in the desert at noon can get hot, and shade is hard to find, gotta use it when you can, only place the temp might be below 100.
After a few hours riding in the heat, a sudden rain storm is a welcome relief,
but can lead to some dirty bikes.
