50 Miles

Today is Saturday September 20 2025 and this morning i rode my Mountain Bike 50 miles on pavement.

It was pretty great.

I should be riding single track to prepare for the upcoming Little Sugar Mountain bike race but as i mentioned previously i'm having trouble wrapping my head around early morning rides on trails filled with spider webs. So tbd if i ever get that figured out.

But at least today i did managed to do a lot of climbing. 2,975 feet. The 50k Little Sugar race apparently has 2,830 feet of climbing so i did just a bit more that that, and felt okay doing it so that's encouraging. 

i started todays ride with a long casual warm up to Downtown and then made my way west to the Argentine Neighborhood, which has lots of steep hills. I almost had to walk the climb up Valley Street. That one is brutal. 

Have i mentioned that i'm signed up for the 100k race at Little Sugar but i intend to downgrade to the 50k. i've done this before and it wasn't an issue so fingers crossed for the same deal this year.
