Bike (Ride with Liz) 3:02:50 [4] ***** 21.1 mi (8:40 / mi) +3187ft 7:35 / mi
Great day. Started early with Liz from my house. Rode Midland to Red Rocks. East ridge trail, to White Acres (that's a lot easier ride than it used to be!). Section 16 where I got some great technical stuff in and felt pretty good. Hike-a-biked up North side of Section 16....Liz was amazed at the difficulty but she did great. took a break at top to regain energy & take in view, then went down Palmer (AWESOME!!), then up High Drive-another long climb. We kept up a good pace up that and sang along the way. Hit Cap'n Jacks (wahoo!!!), the Chutes, Stratton Meadows and Patty Cake all the way back home. Fantastic day. I got rutted out on my last 10 feet of single track for the day and wrecked...but I just scraped up my knee. Nothing bad.
