Same to you, really appreciate the explanation of everything, kept us from getting lost. hah.
It was a little rough, a lot of breaks helped, still more fun than anything. I'm more than up for Early sat morning. Depending on the Storm coming toward us we'll be out there next weekend.
Once agian, thanks.

Theres also 4 miles or so of easy trail on the other side of pate rd.(Games Loop) That and theres a few shortcuts and different directions to ride the trails to make them a little easier. Main thing is to just enjoy yourself and have a good time.. Check the calendar theres a skills clinic coming up in October..

Both of us did, it was more fun just some work for my out of shape body. hah.
we only did the short loop, but thinking about checking the longer one on the next trips just to see what it withholds.

If you ride the loop backwards or clockwise you can eliminate PATE, TREEHUGGER, and GREENBRIAR. Take Carls Trail, to Cambodia to pick up the short loop connector to the powerlines at the top of Greenbriar and cross over to pick up the CHUTE and ride around till you get back to Cambodia again and back to the trail head. Just by looking also if you raise your seat up abount an inch or so, you will be alot more efficient with less burn and more power..
I wanted to come but had to study. I missed another large ride huh? I will be there next time, maybe.

alright will try raising the seat, would explain why mine is so low compared to many other being much higher.
I think I'll try that actually Saturday morning ( riding backwards), is there a group that goes out early Saturdays?
I'm thinking me and a buddy or 2 might go out about 7 AM.
Once again, thanks for the advice it's greatly appreciated.
