Day 136 - Ride to You Drop

Woke up at 6 a.m. in the morning. Had an early morning mountain bike ride with my ridin' buddies -- Nico, Tweezer, and Grapeape. We all met at the parking lot at Mission Trails at 7 a.m. We unloaded and put on our gear and headed out to the trailhead. Tweezer took the lead and pushed a fast pace. We did a few of the older trails including the Up and Over, Thornwood, and the Rattlesnake. I took over and we did the Bikebreaker and the Cactus Run. We stopped the Quicksand Drop to take a couple of pics (that's Tweezer dropping into the Quicksand Drop), a 8 to 10 foot drop. We completed Tweezer and took the Cactus Run out to Champain Run and the end of the new lap. Nico took over and we did Jackhammer, PsychoPath, and Shady Oaks. We did the Bike Breaker again. Yeah! Grapeape took the wheel and we headed over to check out Los Ebanos Road. We raced down Los Ebanos to Old Military Rd. Then we caught in and rode the Up and Over backward to the end. It was a great ride. Everyone was riding hard. It was one of those "ride to you drop" kinda of rides. I got home exhausted and happy.
