Well...this was the shortest ride yet.... 6 miles is all that we did. The previous 2 days of heavy rain made the roads slick as baby crap...and made for a miserable ride. The mud gathered on my tires and tore my front fender off. Which was bad enough...but the mud also stretched my brake lines causing my front wheel to lock up and throw me to the ground.....not once but about 4 times. I was personally done. I was exhausted. So we called the ride. 2 hours.....6 miles....this ride was not what we expected...we will try again in september.
