Return to the Viper

GPR Climb

Parked at GPR/Mountaindale and climbed up GPR to Fishing Creek on the Seven (32x20). 31 minutes. My goal is to get under 30 minutes on a SS.

First Spring Day Ride 09

High 50 totally melted Watershed's winter coat. Small streams were happily flowing down Gambrill Park Road. It felt so great that I didn't have to ride in Lake boots and three layers of clothing any more. A 16-mile ride left the bike covered with gray mud from the gravel road.

p.s. Iceberg was a lot harder without the gaps being filled with snow.

Gambrill Snow Ride

Four days after snow storm, time to ride Gamrbill? Maybe.

The original plan was to ride Iceberg. I drove pass Mountaindale plowing limit and realized it was not a good idea to keep going up. Moved back to Hamburg lot and met up with Denis but the condition there wasn't any better. So Gambrill was the final destination.

In short, I had to pedal most of the downhill and hike the up. A short 8-mile loop took over three hours and I went home half exhausted.
