Unexpected Awesome



First ride back from work and I was expecting a wet weather ride on multi use and paved to kick things off but once in Mill creek ravine things were quite dry and I knew this was going to be a gooder.

The Moots was the choice in bikes again as the Altitude is undergoing mid life or late in life repairs to make it through the season. The ride was short which is sad cause the conditions today were pure epic. The cold weather and skiffs of light rain reminded me I was in the middle of central northern Alberta in early May. Cause dammit. I'm smart enough to understand the weather we get here. On that note. Fuck you social media, you whiny little bitch.

That feels better.... The legs did give out after taking the lower Ewok river trail (does that one have another name too? Meh, who cares, it will always be lower Ewok to me.) to upper Ewok. Once I was at the bottom after rolling through the amaze that is Holy Trail I knew it was time to head back.

The bike was on point today as well as the trails. The conditions are amazing and with no leaves budding things are incredible for riding right now. So go on... Get out there kids.

potty break along the river(don't freak out, i pointed towards the bushes)

The Bike Gods Have Forsaken Me

Honestly not a bad ride...? But it kinda sucked. Absolutely no energy again with the legs having zero climbing energy.  A short write up, so...
