Fuel EX 9.8. Mostly sunny, Cold at the start - 34 degrees or so, dressed in full winter gear but it warmed up nicely by ride's end, didn't notice the wind. It was another gorgeous Fall day but most of the leaves were on the ground, which made riding fast pretty dicey. Started on the East side, trails were not blown off and lots of sticks and trees down, so it was slow going. There were trees down on the Out & Back Connector, The Pines and Yeti. The second section of downed trees on Yeti was 6 trees stacked like match sticks. I stopped about 20 times to remove small trees, branches and debris on these trails. K-D Line was in pretty good shape and the rest of the West trails were blown off (Except Highline), but still had 3-4 trees down. I skipped Highline as leaves were hiding the drops and it is way too hairy to ride when you can't see what's in front of you. After riding the three main West Blue trails, I crossed back over and repeated the East side trails. I saw several other riders, including 2 other retired guys I've talked to at Paul Douglas Woods. Saw 1 deer and several black squirrels. Funny but I noticed I never see birds here, whereas the woods at Paul Douglas are full of them. Total ride was close to two hours so I called it a day. Light lunch and refreshments at The Brathouse in Richmond.
