I followed as close as I could until I lost it in the hills of upper Northern Mill Creek  where I had to stop and check "my shit" as "my shit" was all turned upside down.

The pace slowed down and we hit Ewok Forest and rode the mid trails. The incredible scenery laced with incredible trails was.... Can you guess? Incredible.

After the mid section we rode to the top and rode the high trails. At that time I was finished. Could it be the first week of work that finally did me in? Or that combined with being a little bitch? I kind of think the latter.

The ride ended with me limping home behind an overenthusiastic Jason who clearly needed more to ride today.
