Mountain View-Ship Creek-Chester Creek-animal shelter for pickup. Excellent ride. Played tourist in MV. First ever trip on SC trail. Pushed a bit bc dan was waiting. Need warmer boots.
Home-Tour of Anchorage trail-Basher Road-tank trail to Chester Creek-return via gas line-queen Bee-Jive. Stopped by cold toes. Liked the single track better today. My faithful Stumpjumper is easy to ride very slowly.
Further testing of Stumpjumper and riding garb. Single track and ski trails too rough for pleasure. Best riding on streets and wide multi-use trails. Pogies need some re-work. Toes chilled. Overall excellent success at about 26 degrees. Saw a guy on a fat bike on single track with baby in a backpack; at least it wore a helmet.
