Ray and the Perry County boys had a special route for the Saturday ride and it was sweet. We started the day with some fun, rocky, pumpy trails and a lot of gradual climbs. Then we reached Ant Hill. Dave led and I tried to keep him in sight but the steep pitch with multiple tombstones caused me to hesitate a little and he was gone. What a sweet downhill.
The best was yet to come as we did 3 'sections' of the Tuscarora trail - all were rocky. One was incredible. Allen, Keith, and I had the mojo going and cleaned some unbelievably hard sections. Strangely we all messed up a short down that actually had a line! At that point I guess we weren't looking for one. As a rock lover, this section was honey on my nut cheerios. Words don't do it justice, nor pics. just ride it. Wow!
After the ride, Rays wife and family had tons of food and many a recovery beverage was needed. A good campfire and fireside chats with Saint Wertz, 2 Mikes, the Muckers, the Weisers, Karl, Dave, Al, and Ray topped off a perfect day in the saddle. Thanks Ray - you rock!
