Morning Ride

This morning I was out for a ride through the neighborhood. I'm trying to do a little more training during the week so I won't get so wasted on the trails. Of course I hate riding pavement, so I am fortunate that there is a dirt track that runs along under some power lines about 1/2 mile south of my house. Today I went riding a little further east than I normally do and I came into a new housing development that has only had the grating work on the ground done. It looks like it hasn't had anyone working there for several months as there are massive weeds covering the whole area. I found this great little spot that had drop that was a little over 3 1/2 feet high that I could jump off of. It turned out to be a more enjoyable ride than I expected. I started out thinking it was just going to be a training ride and I was able to mix in some jumping as well. Furthermore I got to really test out the suspension on the new GT. I am happy to say that it works very well. I'm going to drag Spencer and Mike over there next time and we'll snap some pics to post on here.
