Watch that slush on standing water bit...I did rut the shit out of the frozen lakes today (literally - some areas are covered with mysterious 2" deep slush with standing water). It was a bit chilly and windy but fun.
Yes there was a guy kite skating on the smooth ice area.
Those little turkey sausage biscuits are oddly delicious. And the coffee ain’t bad either.I think I just ate too much sausage at the hotel breakfast thing...

It was so weird. 2" of slush with solid ice underneath. Grabbed the wheels and soaked shoes, then refroze instantly. Gave me the Willies!Watch that slush on standing water bit...
Worst I have hit was on Lake Champlain, one sheet of ice subducting under another. Ramp up. front wheel over, winds up in 18" of ice water. Rode back north to Potash bay, tried a westerly run, came to open water a mile out, decided to bag it.It was so weird. 2" of slush with solid ice underneath.

Better than listening to the rant from the other side of your bed, though, eh?Dinner, drinks and a show with a rather nice lady last night. Had a genuinely good time. She called me this morning to see if I was interested in a hike then went on an hour long rant about her emotional entanglement with some married dude in Amsterdam.

Needless to say my injured foot flared up and there is no hike in my near future.

Only been up Long Branch, but yeah, that's an accurate description. Butter Gap is a fun DH and with Cat Gap being open until April, you can bomb down it. Totally worth the 40 min gravel climb from Daniel Ridge parking lot. Although it tends to stay wet and has a large rock face (with a sneak) that being frozen could be more "entertaining".Bikes were ridden, icey roots were slipped on and rocks were smashed off the bike.
Good day here in Brevard, although it was cold as fack. We definitely saw some snow flakes falling.
We decided to bike up the road and did all of Long Branch. After starting pretty mellow and with a climb, that trail drops straight into what I can only call a leaf filled ditch going down the hill. Hilarious.
This time around, there were no hikers in the rocks on Daniels.
Just go with it man, crazy sex is best sex. Of course, if she's a redhead, there might be a need for a restraining order at some point.Dinner, drinks and a show with a rather nice lady last night.

Wanted to try that loop, but will have to wait for next time. On Wednesday when the rest of the party is here, we're going to go back across Clawhammer to Black. And maybe back up for Bennet??Only been up Long Branch, but yeah, that's an accurate description. Butter Gap is a fun DH and with Cat Gap being open until April, you can bomb down it.

I highly recommend this loop: park at Horse Stables and climb Clawhammer. Left on Black then down Avery Creek. Left on dirt road back to stables. The upper section of Avery is blown the fuck out and is some straight up fall line, ravine littered with rawks and root drops riding at mach stupid speeds.
She could be trying to set up a threesome (or more...) I say do it - life is for the living!Dinner, drinks and a show with a rather nice lady last night. Had a genuinely good time.

If you really want to hit all the goods in that area and demoralize your friends with a masochistic amount of climbing then give this loop a try. It took me seven hours, including stops, in warm weather.Wanted to try that loop, but will have to wait for next time.

You're always having at least a threesome with a crazy chick. Just depends on how many others live in her head.B
