Weekend Mountain Biking at Lowes Creek Park

MountainBiking(Nov08)

On Saturday, November 8th, Taylor and I met Steve Bircher at Lowes Creek park for a ride in the light rain and flurries. We warmed up on the ski trails and Tunnels before heading over to the east side up Worm, to do Twister and Dazed where we met Joel Roesch. We also hit Split Rock and Fern Gully. Dave Olson found us there, but Taylor had had enough so we headed back to the car while Steve Joel and Dave continued on.

On Sunday, I met Dave Hogue and Ann Franke at the parking lot and we jumped right into it on StartMeUp, Tetnus Shot and Missing Link. This was Dave's first mountain bike on his bionic hip so we opted for Tunnels and Long Trail South instead of Rad. Then we headed east up Worm to Twister and Dazed, where we met Joel again. (He might just have a tent up there) We practiced bumping over logs for a while and then Bob Schwatz caught up, so we heading over to Far East through Pines Split Rock and followed by another trip on Split Rock and Fern Gully. We finished up with Red Flint and Onion, though intelligent minority took the ski trail down. We got back to the lot just in time for the Packer's kickoff.
