29 July Ride

[theWolfTamer]

Last Sunday I had to get out and try my new +4 advancer on a ride. While I was at it, I figured I'd try mounting my little cams to the Sticky Pods. Rear facing one worked flawless all day long. I had a little trouble with the front one staying mounted. Here's what happened on of the (5?) times I pulled over to re-seat it.

:shaking head:

That was the only time all day Baby felt tired enough to take a nap. I'll post the other videos from last week in a little while.

Sorry to see that happen to you, but it happens. I droped mine once it was worse on my pride than the bike. Time for custom paint!!!!

Baby wasn't hurt at all. Those t-rex sliders do what they're supposed to. Now I have matching scratches on each side! No way I get custom paint as I'm prone to allow my bikes to take a nap from time to time, especially when gravel is involved as it was here.

Yes I saw it but it was too late when I did.

More Wolfpen Gap

After resting at the gas station, I decided to go back down WPG to Blood Mountain and go home. Here's going back down WPG...after the drop in the first post.

Of course, I got stuck behind a line of traffic following a semi going down Blood so I decided to go home the way I came. That meant going back up Blood Mtn and over RR. That video is still in the works because I figured out right before this video that I needed to use Avidemux+ to cut the .avi files before putting it in Openshot for editing.

Loved riding Wolf Pen Gap & Blood Mtn!

You're lucky to have awesome roads so close to you.

The thing about this ride is I decided at the last minute I was going to ride. Didn't have much $$ so it had to be something that I could do in one tank of gas. This is one of my favorite "one-tank" routes.

For good measure...a ride report.
