| Around Great Brook Farms SP in Carlisle, scoping out the venue for a MTB-O event later this year or early next. Planned on a much longer outing, but I flatted and didn't have a spare, kit, or pump. Some of the trails were just vanilla trails, with only the occasional root. The 2nd part was considerably hillier and more technical. I think there's enough park and trail network for a decent O event. With an ice cream stand within the park, how can anyone pass it up? To paraphrase Bill Cosby, there's *always* room for ice cream.
Later back in Worcester, I bought a new tube, but didn't immediately install it. After much yard work, I sat down to install it and noticed it had the wrong valve. The guy asked me about the size of the tube, but not the valve. I had the old one around my neck, but neither of us thought to see if the new was the same as the old. Grrr. |
