RG, Cap'n, B, and I all met at Mosquito and headed for the lake. There we met up with Xteric and NoHandle. For the first time ever, FT3 was accompanied by Booker for a legit ride! Booker rocked the route, often pushing the pace and taking his share of flyers off the front. We rolled out on the first half of the qualifier before heading up to Park Creek on the Bull Head climb (kind of new route). From PC we yo-yoed up and down Wedding March before deciding to head back to home base on Rock Garden 1a. Trails were soggy and slippery but generally holding up ok. There was some talk about expecting there to be more mud. The inspection of the gear when I got home left me wondering, how could there be more mud? Upon returning to the the Knot, we were wet muddy and hungry. RG busted the speed skating get up for tacos and the rest of us opted for the more traditional jeans, jacket, beanie and headlamp look. Tacos continue to be consistently good and the current sauce selection is top notch!
Final orders are due to RG, order is going in today.
Until we ride,

The near miss with Booker and Skunk on Bull Head was noteworthy.
ReplyDeleteGlad I adjusted the FT3F2 and rolled, it was a much needed and worthy outing, even stuck parading around in muddy tights.
Nice write up. I would aadd, Last ride on the Rocky Mtn and snow falling in Canada's NW was also quite notable.
ReplyDeleteFrom the above comments it seems that our trusty blog editor missed a couple key points in this post. Maybe he was still frozen. That said, I very much appreciate the use of latin warfighter terminology. I also appreciate the need to table tabled discussions, as that happens on occasion.
