Event: Dakota Rogaining Championships 2012
 

Third ride in 24 hours up at Cayuna, and another great one! This one had a rush of energy brought on my the cold front that was coming in, squeezing out a few drops but mostly just wind and cooler air. The almost green ambient light of the storm made some areas of the trail appear to glow light purple, magic! Great tour of the areas that we did not get to ride prior to and during the Rusty Ride.

Ride #2 up at Cayuna during our volunteering break. We manned the Sagamore unit feed station in the morning, left around noon to do this ride, before we went back over to take the very last shift and then break down. Great ride, Eric is a very good technical rider considering his lack of experience. Especially good at the sharp switchback turns.

Fun Friday night ride at Cayuna. Did the NE cell in it's entirety and then rode the connector trail down the little cell below. Great weather, great ride. The purple singletrack rules.

8 min mile warm up, two miles at 6:18/mile, then a one mile cool down. Did not feel great, but glad I got some hard running done. Something I know I need to do more of but rarely like doing.

Lap at leb, somewhat messy loop as I had to learn the new trail--they changed things around when they killed off the old parking lot.

Cayuna Singletrack! The bomb. Great riding with perfect weather. Headed up next weekend as well to either race or volunteer at the Rusty Ride.
