Mountain Bike Riding Trip
It?s been an grand summertime up to now. We went on an awesome mountain bike mtn bike ride through the Sequoias. It was an sensational trip, but commenced with the dragging drive. My gear was packed with my bike ready the night before. I started the ride up alone as I left early from the office. I was on a race against time as I was supposed to meet my buddies at the top of the mountain road, marked by a picnic table, at 8pm. I knew my window of opportunity was about 30 minutes. After that time, they were to expect that I got held up and would try again at the same spot at 10am the next day. The only logical outcome of there is that I would be taking a long nap in my car alone that night if I didnt make it in time
Well I didnt have to sleep in the car alone that night. I made it in time to crack a beer and pedal around on the bike a bit and enjoy the fresh mountain air The air was crisp and I was excited to be away from the city. The bike was in perfect shape and ready to hit some trails.
Our bike ride started early and we were ready with big packs stuffed with plenty of food and water. The first hill was killer and was a rude awakening to a very long mountain bike ride. The crew cranked slowly up for about 2hrs. It was a special feeling to finally make it to the top. I chugged nice clean water out of my stainless steel water bottle.
The rest of the day was spent busting tricks, hitting logs and enticing each other to go big. We half a few good breaks in between stopping to eat lunch and have a smoke at the three sisters, what an amazing spot. The terrain was grand and just right for some summertime riding. There was a bit of ice still left on the ground from the spring melt. The temperature was perfect, not too hot, not too cold.
