Triple Double Weekend

It's late and I'm going to make this quick. On Saturday I rode the Triple Trail Challenge. I've wanted to do this ride for the last couple of years but my schedule hasn't allowed it. It starts in the same place as the Trail Half Marathon I've run a couple of times. The course covered three trails and just enough gravel road to connect them. It was a ride, not a race (although it seemed like we were racing), and was sponsored by Tree Fort Bikes and Arbor Brewing. After the ride, the beer and chili were free. Purchases of mugs, t-shirts, and other stuff support the Poto MMBA chapter. Anyway, it was a really tough ride, and it was a lot of fun. I rode with some of the guys I know through the MMBA. Here's the Garmin log.

Today, we did a two-tandem ride that covered some gravel roads not too far from us; close enough that we could ride from home without having to load the bikes into the car and drive to the trail head. It was a beautiful day for a ride. Here's the Garmin log for this one. Pictures below are focused on the MT800 with its new stuff, although you might also make note of Abbey's socks.



Once again I've stayed up too late doing this.
