Our year end party is held at Anne Springs Close Greenway. The trail there is almost 10 miles long and has some good climbing and fun downhills. I rode with the advanced group as a sweep. And boy did I sweep. We did one lap in each direction and my legs burned. My lungs were suffering too, but not as much as my quads.
It was a great ride. I was definitely spent by the end after over two hours of riding. I messed up on a couple things, but no falls or crashes. And the borrowed 10 ton hardtail did it's job.
The party was a great success, and hubby and kid came out to enjoy the food and festivities. As a city, Charlotte has two great attributes. One, it has 10 local mountain bike trails in and around the city. Two, it has a huge community of mountain bikers, with both a men's and women's club.
Tomorrow I plan to pick a full suspension Trek EX-8 from a co-worker at the Trek Store and re-visit the Whitewater Center where I had my accident.
