Mountain Biking 3:37:41 34.41 mi (9.5 mph) +4908ft
ahr:133 max:160 shoes: Viathon M1 GX
Rowdy Dawg XXC Course
Had planned to do this yesterday as a Tough Dog double with BMB but it was so crowded at Pandapas on Saturday that I figured Sunday would be about the same. So I pushed it a day which worked out great. MUCH fewer people out today.
Weather was just about perfect. A tad warm on the climbs but cool otherwise. I staged 2 bottles in the middle of the 2 loop course. Was anxious to go hard at the beginning but paced myself. Pace was still faster than my recent rides (per Strava). Overall my time was faster than I was expecting which was great. My pace was a bit slower on the second lap but only 3 min slower!
Struggled on the rock on Gap the first time through, a bit less the second time. Had some chain trouble on the first climb of Snake but was able to avoid it the rest of the ride.
