Sunday, August 26 - Early Dump

Post by Rolf »

No, Alan, this has nothing to do with your daily, fibre-rich smoothie habit. The Dump—where everyone rips it like:

Greg and L3 propose gathering at sparrow's fart and doing a cross loop, with Hartland as a jewel set mid-ride—something about Fondo-related recon?

Yes, YOU and your cross bike are welcome to join us! It'll get climby and a little technical in parts, but nothing too crazy. (Above GIF is just what Johnny Tyre will get up to; the rest of us will enjoy the ride-arounds.)

Meet-up: 6:30 a.m. - Mt. Doug X Rd. and Glendenning. Route's still getting discussed, but trails may include: Lochside, Royal Oak, Quicks Bottom, Glen's Bridge, HCP, Viaduct, Logan, Hector, Trevlac, Calvert, Panhandle, Highland, Munn, Woodbridge, Louise-led playtime on mostly blue trails in Hartland, Executive, Meadowbrook, Interurban, Colquitz River home.

Should be having coffee by 9:30-ish.

By Flat #4 , L3 was getting exasperated. By Flat #5, she was. But even then, she kept her smile radiating for the rest of us. Thanks for the ride and your grace, L5.

One bike, five tubes! Never seen that in a decade of riding.

But it did nothing to diminish good times in the Dump and both getting there and home. So many tasty trails...

Those inner tubes definitely kicked our butts that ride, fo sho.

But definitely a sweet ride nonetheless!! Looking forward to many more, in darkness and in light.
