… and Sweet Connie.
Did a lot of bike riding this past holiday weekend. Friday and Saturday did a few short rides to Shane’s loop in the Boise foothills.
Sunday’s ride was the big kahuna – Bogus Basin road to the ski area, Eastside to Sweet Connie, then back out to Bogus Basin road and home – about 35 miles in 4 hours. I did this same ride (with a few different trails thrown in) last October and was completely wiped out compared to this year. I think my improvement comes from bike commuting most days of the week.
The Sunday ride did NOT leave me completely bonked which is even more suprising since we did very little resting this year. There was only three of us riding this time versus six riders of varying ability last year. I think I was the slowest rider of the three this year.
