Ride 2/2: Taking spills trying the harder stuff

My crazy idea to do a MTB ride after a 30 mile road ride may not have been the wisest, but I'm making the most of the warm weather and less-smokey air. I met Joyce for a road ride in the morning and then met Peter for my first MTB ride in China Camp. We started off with some very challenging narrow trails hugging the hills with slightly unnerving drop-offs. I had a big fall on one of the tight turns and got tangled up in my bike. I had to walk a LOT on this ride... good to be humbled and challenged. I was not at my best after riding in the morning so perhaps it was lucky that Peter's front brakes stopped working mid-ride and we had to abort our trail mission in search of pavement.
