IBIS Rental Bike. Mostly sunny, warm, strong South winds not a factor in the woods. Rode with Jack but mostly not together. I was riding a loaner Ibis 27.5 while the Fuel is getting repaired, I was not familiar with the bike and wasn't riding as fast as on my bike. I've decided I don't really like the 27,5 - I'm much more comfortable riding my Fuel EX 29er. The Ibis rides lower and felt smaller, it was running 175mm cranks (I run 165mm) so lots of pedal strikes, the brakes were grabby, and probably the biggest factor - it had 1x11 GX cable drivetrain vs the 1x12 X01 electronic on mine. So shifting was much slower and the top granny gear was 46 tooth vs 52 tooth on the Fuel. I really missed the extra gear on some of the steeper climbs at Raceway. Still a good ride at a decent speed on a gorgeous Fall day, I rode my usual route with a few additions - the woodland bandit trail North of the prairie section, and i rode North on Bessinger's Way by mistake and by the time I figured it out I was half way through. I believe this is the first time I completed Bessinger's without a dismount but I did have to put a foot down at one point. I only did one loop on the Little Monza but most of the other South sections were 2 or 3 times. Just a few pictures today taken during stops with my iPhone. I didn't set up camera mount for the Virb on the rental. Almost topped 8.000 miles today, just missed by 2 miles - that will come on Thursday.
