Think I'll ride the paved trail next time
I almost rode the BWI loop today, but I had so much fun at Rockburn Branch last time that I made a last minute change of plans. After all, how wet could the trails be?
The answer is pretty darn wet.
Upstream from here on the way back I lost my momentum and had to put my foot down in shin-deep water. Boy, did that make for a cold foot on the way back.
Riding up the hill on the far side of this picture I crashed -- nothing bad, but enough to shake my confidence for riding over wet logs. Those things are slippery like ice.
This trail will be loads of fun when it's dry. There are some great logs and jumps set up. Near the logs I encountered strange but beautiful dead trees that were covered with ivy.
Sorry about the fuzzy pictures. It's hard to hold the iPhone still when you're breating hard. Actually, the camera is somewhat difficult to use since you've got no idea what your focal length is, exposure, or anything, really.
Back to work -- still haven't figured out how to get a zvol vdsdev working as a guest ldom root.
