JJthewhale and I hit up LPQ for a nice 2hr ride. We forget to set the odometer to find out elevation and mileage but nonetheless went down jj's normal route from the West entrance and made our way up the fire road next to the powerlines to rock down tunnels with a short bit of bike gymnastics before the climb back out. What a fun ride! The cloud cover kept the temperature down though the humidity was a little less than desirable. As with most of the Treader Crew jj is a lot of fun to ride with. He climbs like a goat and is already to do something stupid for a laugh. We planned on getting some more gymnast shots but decided to keep our heart rates up with this aerobic ride.

Just had to be done.

I might incorporate that into my dis-mount from the un-even braches
