Todays ride departed @ 10:00 and we got picked up in Marion @ 7pm. Around 8hrs of riding,hiking,pushing,and hauling in our beloved country of single track. !hr of time wasted filtering water, looking @ a map and getting a ride home. Thanks Mike for the Ride! First ride Geezer and Johnny couldn't complete due to energy,light and position! Overall good Day of Training!

Todays ride started and finished in a Rain/Fog Best part about heading to the South Mtns is you never know where your going and its always a good workout. Tryed out the Soma 96er Fixie bliss! The 32x17 gearing worked great! Good place to filter water and set camp along the way and the grave yard was nice! 4 hours of single/double track and alot of hills, not to many views though. For some reason it felt like I was kinda fogge or in a dream state of mind. Zero visiblity might have contributed to the wonderful lack of perception. No cars,horses or people= Good Ride!
