| no partners | | i guess it's time to start cranking out what azt sections i can solo, as out and backs. been trying to time my availability and the weather for this one. thought i had it nailed today...except for the nonstop maelstrom winds all pumpkin day
hit the trail right as the sun was rising and started off pretty cold. warmed up enough pretty quickly and was on my way. a charming segment with more classic southern AZ rolling hills and long views. kinda of a roller coaster of ups and downs kept my attention. excellent trail build and maintenance with no route finding issues at all. took a short break at northern TH for about 20 minutes, hit the B's and blasted out like a raging pumpkin. about 4.5 miles and two sizable climbs from the end, the weather turned (even more) quite crappy (dark skies, big temp drop, etc) so i hit the jets and brought it home fast. started raining, albeit briefly, about 10 minutes after i got back to my ride. that woulda been pumpkin COLD.
this segment bridged the gap between the border and freeman road.
2 deer and 1 jack rabbit were the only lifeforms i saw all day |
