I tried going out again, hoping it would be cooler. Narrator: It was not. A week ago when I rode the trails, someone had gone through and cleared them back. So I was hoping maybe the rest of the trails were too. Narrator: They were not. On top of that the thistle are already growing back and encroaching on the trail. Had to turn back from going up to Sugarloaf Peak because of the thistle. So I did Creek Overlook Trail instead and on the tricky, rocky, rooty, descent that they’re adding stairs too, my front tire washed out after I went off a drop into a very loose patch of gravel. I don’t know how I managed it but I went over the bars (jumped over?), landed on my feet, and ran the rest of the way down the hill. Grateful for my cat-like reflexes. 🐈‍⬛ I guess I didn’t get away full unscathed as my knees and ankles hurt from the heavy impact, possibly straight-legged/knees locked out. The bike was basically unscathed fortunately. UPDATE - found a little welt on the side of my right shin so I must have clipped something on the way over the bars.
