Well be glad y'all didn't come along it was hell on wheels. I bonked really hard after keg and ran out of water while on the connector. Had to run down to wild wood and replenish the water. Keg by the way is a disaster there are 26 tree crossings before you get to the top of the boulder point and another 3 or 4 after that I was trying to keep track of the numbers but it got confusing after a while. I made it back to Peters burg but the thought of 6 more miles of single track was to much and I cut out and took the road home. I saw some scary ass snake about 5 feet long black with yellow rings.. just chilling in the middle of the trail and I saw an armadillo, I didn't even know you had them things around here. Aloha Y'all- see ya Thursday night

Nice honest feedback.
After we came across you today on New Bartram, and knowing what you you attempting, we both were very surprised given the time of day and the length of attempted ride. Nothing against you. We just knew that today was supposed to be a hot one.
Our PB to WW and back again was enough for me today. Yesterday's PB to West Dam to new PB, to nearly WW and back to the camp site cut my tail.
The newly trimmed air strip is kinda nice. Glad they decided to get off their tails and finally do something.

Another Sunday in Plum Branch.
Did a little over 21 miles, done by 11AM.
Great ride today.
Gotta get out early and beat the heat. Was just starting to get hot when we were done.

I hit the trail at 6:45, only negative thing about that is you become the spider web sweeper... I hate spider webs!!!
