the troops gather at the parking area off Highway 38 in Angelus Oaks - nice day!
|
|
 |
Eric's bike excitedly eyes the trails we will soon be taking!
|
|
 |
Ruth, Wendy, Laura and Susan can't wait to hit the trail!
|
|
 |
it's a long trail - Graham needs two bike computers to record this one!
|
|
 |
and we're off up the initial fire road by the Post Office
|
|
 |
Wendi gathers her group for the shortcut down to the river trail ...
|
|
 |
... Tamara's group rides further up the fire road to get in a bit more of the river trail!
|
|
 |
Steve, Laura, Ruth and Eric at the single-track gate
|
|
 |
Howard almost joined the wrong group!
|
|
 |
yes, Tamara, I don't think we will be going up quite that high!
|
|
 |
Ruth heads down the start of the single track
|
|
 |
Desi lets Jack by on the initial stretch
|
|
 |
prudence may be the better part of valor!
|
|
 |
Wendi ahead of Susan
|
|
 |
Jack and Desi forge ahead on a section with a bit of exposure
|
|
 |
the obligatory flower picture!
|
|
 |
Jim leads Lea on a wider section
|
|
 |
beauty among thorns!
|
|
 |
Jim sneaks a peek at the view as the trees open up ...
|
|
 |
... now it's back into the canopy!
|
|
 |
a rather hidden trail turnoff!
|
|
 |
log jam at one of several stream crossings!
|
|
 |
that's Wendy with a 'y' ...
|
|
 |
... and here's Wendi with an 'i' - diversity in life!
