Wednesday and Saturady Ride

Wednesday was an interesting ride. Set out with Matt, Tyler, and Jim to do some Horse gulch riding. Matt and I were the only two to make it up Telegraph without touching down...Jim decided we should go down crites instead of our usual route. During the decent down crites I was pedaling in middle ring for extra speed and clipped a rock. I then flew through the air and landed on my side and back, somehow coming up to my feet...it was my fastest crash ever but my injuries were minor. A few scrapes and bruises but not bad enough to end the ride. My hip, back, and shoulder was very sore the next day and even today still has some black and blue's.

My left Candy C pedal is also bent and basically now junk :(


Saturday was hotter then hell. My body felt strong but my efort felt weak due to the heat. I did some of the race course that was setup for Sunday. Telegraph->grandview->cowboy->southrim, up the road to the cowboy crossover to see where the race went, then back down big canyon.

The road between big canyon and cowboy is absolutely destroyed from dozers, lame.
