as to not piss off the "epic" gods... I will only say this once, I was not in form to ride the "epic" ride that we ended up doing on Sunday. my butt and legs were both still pretty spent from the Alleycat on Sat. But I promised to ride Sunday, and being a man of my word, I did just that!
I met up with Manhattanprjkt, and some other riders for an awesome day. We put in over 20 miles (one guy kept saying 23, but I don't know) we were riding at a pretty good pace, and were out for quite some time!
Steve climbing early in the ride.

Deadfall pruning! Just trying to get all the Pungy sticks off of the thing! We stopped several times to clean up stuff. I was amazed at how some riders would make a go around through the woods, when one person could easily move most of the deadfall we saw!:disgust1:

Double D riding through the field… at this point we had been riding for about 2.5 hrs, and were about an hour+ away from the cars :shocked:
