the night loop

Had a hit out on the local night loop through 4th Hill area last night with Jason and Gav. Had a few thoughts of our departed mister sister..... all well he is in tropical Queensland booo hoo! life is tuff for some.
Anyway headed out for a loop and enjoyed it heaps. Lots of climbing which is only going to get me fitter (well that's what I was saying to the parts of my brain asking me what the fuck are you doing this for, there are easier trails) and what goes up must come down. Always good when you are getting smashed by fitter people. Jason has thrown down (not that he knows til he reads this) the challenge of riding all hills no matter what cause the on the last hill last night he smashed it... I have only every walked it cause I am usually smashed by the time you get to it. The joys of being bike fit!
The loop needs a touch up here and there cause the spring and winter have given the plants some overdrive growth. Need to take out some chopping implements next time. 4th Hill was predictable as ever until Jason threw in a nice single track descent..... have to remember that for next time.
The locals were out drinking in there garages last night near 4th Hill and had the place lit up with more fairy lights than you had ever seen (some ones on the pills I reckon.... or the magic mushrooms) and were quite bedazzled by us pedaling by. Everything was covered from trees to caravans and houses..... strange, might be getting ready for Christmas early.
Got the roller board finished and today was day one of core strengthening...... it will hurt tomorrow. Will post a pic of the rack as it has been named by yours truely.
Felt Epix this weekend..... its going to hurt!
Happy trails!
