The last ...

... real mountain bike of the season??

Big plans for the day. Craig and I headed out to the mountains, and while talking it seem all possible. Start at Powderface Parking. Climb up PF to the Link and up Prairie Creek, PF road to JP climb, up and over JP to Cox, down to Dawson, road back to JP Summit Trail, up and down the back side of JP, road up to back of PF, up and over PF ridge, and highway back to parking lot.... hmmm maybe on a peak season fitness and superb trails.

The plan all seemed possible until we hit section of JP with snow, then some more snow of the way up Cox, and down even more, some mud and then a road section that feels like forever from Dawson to JP summit trail, headwind in every direction it seemed. Besides skipping the PF ridge plan we got it an awesome day of riding, the legs felt like they should after a great weekend of riding. And knowing this might have been the last up and over Cox, it felt even better.

After the ride I tried very hard to find my stocked away snickers bars and cans of coke, but no such luck! Someone else must have enjoyed it over the summer sometime. Held out until Bragg Creek.

Happy Riding!
