Note
weight:222.8lbs

Frequently encountered while exploring seasonal roads.

If you look close, near the left fork, there's a sign on the tree. Something like "24 hour video surveillance, no trespassing", that sort of thing.

Which fork is this hoping you won't use? To me, it seems to indicate that proceeding on the left fork would be wrong. But it's not, the left fork is the continuation of the seasonal road ("Not plowed by insert county"). The right fork I think does go into the private property.



The entrance to this season road had No Trespassing signs perpendicular to the road on both sides at its start! (The transition from non seasonal road to seasonal road.)

This isn't isolated. There's a river bend park where the no trespassing signs are more perpendicular to the road rather than parallel, causing you to doubt that you are able to proceed on the road when you can. There are some other seasonal roads that go through kind of hunting grounds (some single private party, some hunt clubs) where there signs are similarly placed.

This is one of the reasons I didn't even consider than we'd end up behind a gate at WT 2017.

Biking 2:16:49 intensity: (11:28 @0) + (1:48:35 @1) + (16:38 @2) + (8 @3) 23.54 mi (10.3 mph) +14m
ahr:120 max:154 shoes: Jamis Dragon Sport 29er

Rode down to pickup my car from the windshield place (swapped it earlier today for the freshly windshield-ed spouse's car), but did so via I-275 Metro, and then the glorious fine crushed stone (you could ride 23s on it) trail, out to the Morton Taylor mtb trails.

I think those trails would work for MTB-O. I know I was confused, did not ride half of them, and was all over the place. I had a great time. Other than I will probably use up the last of my Tecnu, should reorder stat!



Then the again fine crushed stone trail up to the car was pretty sweet. More power lines need more trails!

Dream somewhat tempered. Although not all miles are equal. A few season or forest roads, some gravel, eight miles of more or less single track.

Snapped my chain trying to sprint across a major road, that was a trip. Fortunately I had found my tools so I pulled over at a cemetery and shortened it a bit, good to go.

Maybe not quite ready for c2c, but maybe could get ready.

Worked hard for a good time, but lights were not in my favor, and power waned slightly when I hit the concrete mile, which I swear is higher rolling resistance than the blacktop.

I have heard tales of people riding road bikes with road tires on gravel, but the little gravel shortcut I take...it's terrifying on this bike with touring tires - the front end slides towards the outside of the turn on every rock it hits if I try to hustle at all. skitter skitter skitter. When it's not loose stones, it's fine.

Wife wanted to meet for fro yo. I checked the map, said I’d join, she said she was surprised I had the calories for it, I said, I’d have them when I got there.
