| no partners | | | Took the fat bike out this morning, once it warmed up, to test it's climbing abilities. First climb was up Hurts Donut. Had a tough time getting through the rocky start with lots of pedal strikes. Once past the gauntlet of rocks, the wide tires made short work of the gravely steep climb to Pastry Pass. Descended down to Kim's Climb and followed that up to Proposal Pass. Rusty Rake trail to Jim's Star Pass to start the climb up to the top of North Star to see the Christmas tree. In the 5+ years I've been riding the FINS trails, I've never once been able to pedal my MTB to the top of North Star without having to push multiple sections of this climb. Until today! That fat tire bike is like having a low range 4 wheel drive! I was able to pedal all the way up, but I did have to stop a couple of times to let my heart rate drop. I spent some time enjoying the view then headed back the way I came. Stopped part way down to take a group photo for a bunch of lady hikers on their way to the top. Rode a bunch of other trails working my way back home. |
