2012-06-24-TrailRide-Manhattan

It's too hot to ride the baking roads, so I opted for a tree-lined trail ride instead. That meant swapping my road wheels for my trail wheels with the fatter tires. Ten miles down the trail, I got my first flat of the year - apparently from a bad valve on that fat front tire. It was lurking in the closet, waiting for me. If you must have a flat, though, have it next to a nice city park with shady shelters, tables and water fountains. Sojourner Truth park at the Manhattan Avenue trail head, in this case. It was 96F, 99F heat index, with light SSW breezes, and 15 miles proved plenty.
