TR: Tour de Laguna Excess

So my co-worker and I went riding today, because, well it's our scheduled day off. So after hitting up the Canari sale this morning in Vista and picking up some decent bargins, wheels were rolling at noon in the direction of Pine Mtn trail. Upon hitting Champagne pass, we bombed down Pinball on Indian Creek, climbed up Noble to the BLT cut off and headed that direction after our warm up. We rode for a while, exploring as usual. Found some trails not on MTBBill's latest Laguna map, managed to do Red Tail Roost, Los Gatos, Wooded Hill, and finished up with another trail after sunset, completely discharged all 3 light batteries after 3 1/2 hours of night riding, enjoyed the clear sky with full moon, and got full use of our morning Canari bargains in the 36 degree temps. So we finally arrived back at the vehicle after some 8 hours, ~4000' of climbing, and 35.2 miles later, and a tad hungry. I've really gotta stop this nonsense.
