I have no idea where I am
So, is there an app that would track my milage and other data without requiring me to join a social network ? I have no interest in getting competitive, just wanna know how long it takes me to ride some sections.

I did a route i haven't done in a while at my favorite spot. Included some trail i hadn't ever been on before, it wasn't that great. But i had time and really needed to clear my head so i did an extra 5 miles. The photo of this tree doesn't do it justice.

107 mile race yesterday. Name is "The Soggy Bottom". It definitely lived up to the name.

Woah an Ellsworth out in the wild.
God damn those bikes suck. I rode one of the new fancy swoopy frame enduro bikes they are making and I though it was pretty ok. Till I pulled the brakes and the rear suspension just completely locked out. It was so noticible they probably have a marketing term for it. Elsworth's proprietary patented BSS: Brake Stiffening System.

Climbed ok though :bonk:

Too freaking fatigued after the 100 mile race this weekend. I just rode from berry-bush to berry-bush this afternoon and ate berries.

Sometimes they have spiders on them. You just eat those too.

Schweddy balls. It was a really nice ride. Especially after I stopped peeing out my butt. I'll just leave it at: my garden has been producing a *lot* of tomatoes, zucchini, and cucumber this year.

Same old trail but the bike shop guy sported this yesterday, we did not ride the same trails so not sure how it went. It looked a bit ass hurty to me. I liked the idea of cables leading from the brake levers to a hydraulic actuator, not sure why but its the kind of over engineering I approve of.
