mountain biking 1:11:34 8.53 mi (8:23 / mi) +877ft 7:39 / mi
ahr:116 max:155 weight:137lbs
Time for a few miles in the rocks and roots. Got rained on about half the time, and everything was very slippery with all the rain we've been having, so was off the bike unintentionally I think 7 times.
Most were benign, lose traction going up and put a foot down, but one time going downhill, when I was going quite slowly and had just reminded myself that things were slippery, the rear wheel just went right out from under me and I had a more airborne dismount. Landed on my feet, but in the process whacked my right inside anklebone on the end of a handlebar as the two were going in opposite directions. Will be sore for a while.
Been riding on much easier stuff recently, so the tire pressure was up, maybe 60ish. For this stuff 25ish is better. Oh well...
