1/19 No Train 1:12 https://www.strava.com/activities/837817934

More of the same, a lil ho-humm, I gotta figure out a way to mix it up. I need more hours in the day. Or hit the lottery.
Did not stop for pix, maybe tomorrow.

I got some squeaks and klunks on my machine that need attention, that's for another day too I guess.

Slow and wet. At least the ground was still mostly frozen solid.

I guess there is a story with every ride.. Today's ride story was simple.... Sleepy, tired, MEH... For the first 10 minutes of pedaling, my HR was low AF, like resting HR low and then it eventually rose to a MEH status and no matter how hard I pushed today, it would just stay at MEH, no higher. Additionally, I rode the heavy bike today. It's such a slug. I've ridden the light bike all week and jumping back on the heavy bike was a mind screw. "I'm working like hell and not going anywhere".. LOL... On the flip, going from the heavy bike to the light bike is the shit. I spoiled myself this week with the light bike. Why not, the roads were in decent shape. Looks like some serious shit weather is in the near future. I'm toying with the idea of riding in it because I have a new iPhone7

Was hoping the trail(s) were dry enough to ride this am; took a chance and I was good to go. Dry enough not to leave any ruts, but soft enough to grab the wheels ever so slightly. Felt as if my brake was grabbing a bit or a constant headwind.

There's not much in the form of "Street Art" in my area unless you consider farm equipment, confederate flags, or random lawn gnomes. This was the best I can do for today.....if not acceptable...I completely understand.

Quick local trail ride, too bad more rain is on the way. At this point anything that is low and holds water is basically flooded. Stay high and dry on the road my friends.

A rare day riding, well, actually in the day. Saw the snot on the radar bearing down and rearranged the schedule for a lunch of dirt and a flat. The lower trails were soft, best to stay away for now.

MTBNJ trail:

Mushrooms and a Flat:

Capt. Obvious spoiler: It's amazing how much more detail there is to see when it's light. Also amazing is how much detail you don't need to see to ride the trails.

Rode Hartshorn with @FitmanNJ, who I ran into after looping Huber in the Claypit Creek parking lot. Two miles after getting onto Rt.36 on the way home, the first drops hit the windshield.

Here's a picture of a Hartshorn Scenic Overlook taken with an actual camera:

Go back and get a picture of that climb up the muddy gully from that Iron Mt. loop out to the road.
Do you ride the gully, or the edge?
