Day 342 - Welcome to the Jungle

You know that Guns and Roses song "Welcome to the Jungle". The lyrics go "Welcome to the jungle. It gets worse here everyday. Ya learn ta live like an animal. In the jungle where we play." It looked and felt like I was riding through a jungle during our weekly group ride at the trails on Thursday. The grass, from the downpoor of rain that we received a few days ago, was 5 to 6 feet high in certain sections of trail. The tall grass made for a rough ride. We couldn't see the trails so we had to ride slow. The grass also stratched up my arms and legs. And there were hordes of mosquitos chasing us. If we stopped they would attack us. After of hour riding through the jungle we headed back to the trailhead all stratched up and bitten. It wasn't a fun ride.
