I've got 99 Luftballoons (but a b!tch ain't one)
Things finally aligned for me to check out the goods at Sterling.
The hype is real.
Ran into Tom (
@Bleeder) in the caretakers lot, asked him which is the better direction. That's like asking a parent which is their favorite kid I guess. He said it's great either way.
This was good, because I set off intending to do it CW, but missed the first turn, so it'll be CCW today!
Amazing stuff. Just amazing the planning and execution on these trails.
Seems like it would ride pretty well either direction, but any regulars want to chime in on their preferred lot/direction?
So when I'm going up a hill, and go to downshift, but I'm already in the lowest gear, I make a "click" sound so my legs think they just got a couple more teeth in the rear gear.
Please don't tell them I do this.
