A Really Good Ride

We had a great ride yesterday - not much distance, but a lot of altitude. We climbed up about 10 steep kilometers, cutting through some very scenic areas. Brian and I were on our singlespeeds, and Dan (our friend and co-worker) was on his new (geared) Giant. We then did some rolling hills, before coming to one of the trails down. We had decided we wouldn't take this particular route as it was bound to be very muddy and very slippery in some parts. However, once we got to that trail head, instead of passing it by, we changed our minds because, despite all the mud, it is still the most fun and challenging way down. This was new for Dan, but he didn't hesitate to hit the slippery slopes!

When we got back to our apartment, we were covered with mud and our bikes were barely recognizable - what can be better than that?
