RP RCA areal MTB ride

Looking at over 5000km road on skinny tires since the last MTB ride at some time in Feburary (must have been that below Zero F nigth ride) and looking forward to his MTB tour coming up next month PyZahl really needed some "clean" dirt below his fat MTB tires :-)

So he got his Lightrider ready to roll and put on the already waiting new Cassette -- as the old one is worn to death by now -- chain starts jumping over the most tortured gears of it lately...

8:55am at the north eastern trailhead of Rocky Point Park (or former RCA area)... waiting for possible riders showing up by 9am as he posted the ride. Riding in circles at the trail head... none until 9:13. Let's go.

He is moving on and merged into the one way trail -- it took a few minutes to get full control over the so different feeling bike, but felt good and very comfortable ;-)

Passing a few slow moving or resting biker... whoooooosh

Some where at the second extra loop or so he noticed a rider not so far behind trying to hang on, he was still going at moderate pace -- well, let's see -- increasing the pace a bit and having fun :-)

This rider turned out to be skinnybike, PyZahl meet him the first time, he did good and they rode the park together for a while, including the west end -- from where they split up as PyZahl had to finish to the north trail head. Great ride, great day!!
