Felt low energy today. Sleep deficit, end-of-drug cycle, etc.
I mowed some small lawns. Traffic on I-75 N was backed up to Lenior City exit. People fleeing the "Great State of Georgia"?

Oh and he knows the course of the Mallorca 312, through he hasn't ridden it. He calls it quite the tough course. Asked if datlas likes climbing.

Bob is incorrect about there being no used bicycles for sale.

Sunshine and singletrack on a sunny Saturday was spectacular…
Someone hung a swing from a tree next to the trail…

Not walking for two months+ really takes the stamina out of your legs.

Let go of your prejudice about the color red, and embrace the spirit of gravel. We drink beer (or not, if that’s your choice), and welcome folks who ride all the bikes (or just 1 bike, if that’s your choice).

I coulda told you that you can't lean a bike against a swing. It'll fall right over.

This is why mass cycling/NASCAR/etc. are dumb. Completely random that people get taken out of the race.

We're into two weeks of Easter vacation, so traffic should be minimal early mornings. I'll try to get out at, or just before first light and see how it goes. After yesterday's ride, I'm again looking at off road options. I went to Athens Ohio craigslist and found not a single bike for sale; then went to a bigger city. Same. Bob tells me all the used bikes got bought up during covid and the market hasn't recovered; he told me there are no used bikes anywhere. Sad!
