Great Western Fat Bike Ride 3-17-24

Trek Farley 9.6. Mostly cloudy, very cool - mid 30's, stiff NW winds @ 16-18 mph with feels like temps in the mid 20's. Pretty much perfect route for the conditions. half a dozen other riders out, maybe a dozen hikers. Rode from LeRoy Oakes trailhead to Sycamore Park and back, no stops except to change the camera battery.

Trail conditions very dry and I pushed pretty hard for a great workout. 36.5 miles on the Fat Bike felt like 50+ on a road ride. Longest mileage ride yet on the fat bike. Good week with 6 days, 135 miles and 13+ hours riding.

Stopped at Global Brew for a quick wing lunch and rehydration.

Leg1 out to Sycamore Park: 18.5 miles, 1:45, 10.6 mph avg speed.
Leg2 back to LeRoy Oakes: 18.0 miles, 1:22, 13.1 mph avg speed.
Overall 3:07 moving time, 11.7 mph avg speed.
