The bikes had not seen each other in a while.
The weather had been a little warmer but I did not expect to find the mud spots we encountered. It was still a fine afternoon for a ride through the woods. The temperature was in the upper 30's and I added a vest layer atop my wool jersey for some extra warmth.
No leaves or under story to block the views.
I tried to eat more often to keep some energy going. At the covered bridge I ate up a homemade energy bar and we got to business on Mount Doom.
Doing some climbin'.
We cut the loop short at about mile 21 and headed back to the car via road. This gave some opportunity to fling mud of the bikes. They were still quite dirty upon return to the parking lot.
Wash me!
It was a good early season ride. My forearms seemed to get as much workout as anything, just holding onto the bars. Maybe some spring weather will show up for the next ride!
Heading home.
