Cycling (Suburbancross) 1:40:32 20.38 mi (12.2 mph) +611ft
ahr:143 max:172 shoes: Sidi Dragon 2
Felt like doo doo yesterday, so I emailed Andrei to see if he wanted to do the Suburbancross. I needed something to get me going. He jump in it. So, off we go.
This was a fun event. Just when you are comfortable riding in a peleton on a tight sidewalk, you move to a road, road changes to a gnarly hill covered in loose gravel, which converts to single track, which converts to road, which converts to double track, to single, etc. I would say the field divided by mile 4 ish. We didn't pass or get passed for the following 16 miles. Andrei had some light issues, so we had to ride close for the last 7 miles. Good times on a great night. We finished middle of the pack. 17 and 18 overall.
The MNOC crew had a good night.

I stopped at the John Muir Trails to break up my 11 hour ride home from Terre Haute, IN. This is my first loop. A little tentative as I was expecting the trails to change in to some gnarly downhill with a foot of sand at the bottom. That is what I experienced when I did the SKMC two years back. Turns out that is a completely different section of the park. These trails were sweet. In great shape, great flow, really nice.

Second Loop at John Muir. Cathy Diamond met up with me and we set out for another loop. We used the same trail for a portion, then went out on a longer leg. Cathy is joining us at CP Tracker Nationals. Another good ride. I took a digger on an awkward uphill turn, but other than that, more great trails!!!
Cathy and I got to chatting, I forgot to start my watch.... I added the distance back in, but the GPS track does not show the missed section.

One last loop. I think I did all the trail minus some small spurs. I know there is a link trail to the other portion of the park. You could probably ride 5-6 hours with minimal trail overlap out here. Well maintained and great flow.
