Well my weekend wrap goes like this
Friday as described above turned out to be my best day of the weekend especially with friends who carry the things you need.
Both P and I have been under the weather for about 2 weeks. I'm pretty sure it's allergies or a combination of that. I've been highly congested for about a month but our energy levels have been off.
Saturday we rode stephens but more so morel hunted. We've been skunked so far and assumes it's still a tad early. Later went to Blairstown Agway to pick up bales of straw as we are going to try straw bale gardening this year.
Sunday preped the garden area and went to a local area for yet again another morel hunt. Nada thing, it does become a feeling this is a waste of time. Yet if you find a catche you would understand. Came back home and prepared to head over to earthworm to examine shottrack course and to ride up to Schilling Rock. Patty stayed at the lot to Hoop while I was riding.
Logging has seemed to be completed at the Dan Beard memorial area but it's definitely gonna take a all hands on deck approach from our team to prepare for the MTBNJam. So I scurried over to the old short track with the intention of climbing up the blue Dan beard climb because I can 😁
I picked up the tip that you drop your saddle on the extreme steep and technical climbs to keep better tire contact. Worked like a charm and this is definitely got some of the steepest ups I have attempted yet. It also makes getting to Schilling Rock a breeze. As I started heading down I got about 200 yards hit my rim on the tire that had a tube and it was game over. This time I did not have the essentials needed for a repair. Call to P to meet me at the DB memorial and the walk of shame began.
Later I layed weed control barrier on my garden bed and stacked/prepped my bales accordingly.
Then ordered DHR doubledown and tubes haha.
