Had a good 30km pre-work ride with the crew this morning.
It's good to be back on the bike after a little lay-off.

I'll try that on Sunday, although the only time I'll probably hit that speed whilst Mountain Biking is on a downhill. :DQuote:

Haha, the last time I did anything of the sort was the bike leg portion of my Ironman in 2011 where I managed an average of 32.5 kph for the 180km. These days, the pace is much more sedate in keeping with my age. :DQuote:

Much more practical for this kind of riding than 47 pound, single speed bike with 4"wide tires that weigh six and a half pounds a piece. Haven't ridden a bike off pavement for years and my technique and condition both need lots of work but it was fun to get out and get some fresh air just the same.

Back behind bars again and loving it. That's what I call single track.

For the record, I was riding with no hands while taking this picture, hopped that big root on the left, threaded the bike between two huge pine trees and continued to buzz down the trail at top speed :). No, not so much, actually, I was stopped, drinking water and gasping for breath.
