singletrack ....

Rode two hours today at Landahl. Covered a fair amount of ground, though none of the black trails. Next time I take my bike in for service, I'm going to get a computer on there so I at least know how far I rode.

Ended up on some rocky stuff a few times, which was not fun. Like really rocky, like a rock garden. So there was some bike pushing. And it was warm! 80-ish degrees.

According to various websites, I burned 400-500 calories/hour. Though there is so much variance in mountain biking, I don't know how you could ever calculate that without some kind of gadgetry or something.

Landahl is a haul from here, but it was worth it. Next time I want to drive that far, though, I may hit Smithville again. My closest haunt is BRP, but it was supposedly pretty muddy still.
