I need an adventure

Jun 29, 2007 Author: admin | Filed under: bikes, life, training

I just read that Juancho’s pal Squatch has planned an epic cycling adventure involving riding his bike 325 miles from central Florida to Tallahassee. Lately I’ve been having thoughts of adventure. I’m not sure what I want to do but I know that it will involve knobby tires and dirt.

1-speed-darrien posted to the bikeposse about a 50/100 miler in the North Georgia mountains. I’m thinking that it might do… the 50 that is. They just posted an unofficial map of the course and it looks pretty darn epic.

My inlaws are in town this weekend so I’ve got a mini-epic planned for Sunday morning. Gonna ride some of the Dirty Spaghetti route.

Mr. Tortoise - 1 / Ric - 1

I finally got him! He was about 50 feet up the trail from his crib and he stopped and posed for me. I hope those damn fool kids on the gator vehicle coming in from the gate to the Phipps horsey farm don’t run him over. I wonder where he was going….

I like this stretch of singletrack through the pines at Phipps Park cause it’s fast and flowing. Kudos to the Northwest Florida Water Management District/City of Tallahassee for keeping this stuff burned and un-scrubby.

Fast trail through the pines

And remember, always take off the chamois after your ride or you’ll start growing potatoes on your taint. Do like Del says…

This cop went a little overboard with these skate kids.
