Montgomery Bell....Wheee!
Oh the ankle hurts but it's amazing how if you ride in the cold for 3 hrs you can't really feel it. This is a great thing because I took a haul out to Montgomery Bell State Park today to explore some of the mtn bike trails. I raced there this summer and the course was relentless. I found out that the race course only exposed the tip of the iceberg. The crew that has been putting these trails together really know how to utilize the space and the natural terrain, not to mention build some sweet wooden jumps and bridges. I rode for 3 hrs taking the outer loops, inner loops, one way downhills, and new trails that ended no where. This did not bother me one bit b/c whatever trail I was on kept me working, twisting, and wrenching the bike and my body. I wanted to take it easy but that just not happening with the 180 degree switchbacks and the geeeeed out drops. This is my new favorite trail around the Nashville area, although Hamiliton Creek is a close 2nd. I think I would like Hamilton Creek more if you didn't have to worry about the attack of the non-breeders.
And I just remembered that I did not post an update about some riding and trail-building that I did with a few friends at Lake Barkley State Park. Check back b/c it's 9p and I'm jettin' to the gym to get my lift on.
Buenos noches mis amigos!!!!!
