I am up in North Carolina (the coast, not the mountains) visitng my new Granddaughter, so no ride for me this weekend. Thursday afternoon we rode Carter Rd (Loyce Harpe Park) in lakeland instead of our normal WTA ride. Chris, JP, Kevin & family, and a friend of his all met around 4:30pm for a ride around this technical single track park. I have to say this being my 1st time riding it, I was surprised how technical it was.
I did fall once due to not knowing of a stair step drop off on the other side of a little bank, but no great damage. I was still not able to shift good because of my sprained thumb from 2 weeks ago, but it was still fun. I had to bail early due to trying to get home and pack for my trip, but i did as much as "Cruddy Buddy" which is very tight and technical. I look forward to riding there again soon.
I did get my thumb X-rayed and there is no broken bones, but the ligiments were torn and will take another 4 weeks to heal per the Doctor.
Oh well, I have to run, see you all at the May 9th Family ride and Class!
