First Mt Bike ride of the season!
Mostly chainsaw work on a trail in Vermont: bike a 100ft or so, get chainsaw out of backpack to cut and clean blowdowns, repeat. Wonderful warm morning after a little early rain that freshened things up.

a before and after of a small blowdown over the trail and then after cutting/dragging the downed branches out of the way
A fun little downhill section, extra spicy w/chainsaw in backpack
single track with red shelf fungus on an old moss covered log next to the trail
The one that got away: second battery ran out just as I was starting on this jumble of trees that toppled over the trail. Two low ones to cut, the upper ones might be fine as-is for now depending on what they’re leaning on.

That's the kind of sign you don't want to see after rolling down. LUCKILY I didn't have to cycle back up very long.

The sign says that "you shall not pass" due toe forest works ... I hesitated because I assumed there might not be any work going on on a saturday at ~2pm.

But ... if someone is there after all - someone might not be happy. So I adjusted my plans. I was just REALLY happy that they put up the sign so early.

It was still a nice day on the bike

A close-up image of a sign on a dirt road in a forest setting. The sign is white with black text, standing out against the dark background of trees and foliage. The sign says that tresspassing is prohibited due to forest works. The dirt road is surrounded by lush greenery and tall trees, indicating a natural, outdoor location such as a state park or wooded area. In the foreground, there is a watercraft visible, adding a hint of adventure or exploration to the scene.

Ich glaube ich muss mir um mein #MTB Sorgen machen. Kaum hat man es 12 Jahre und 31000 km in Gebrauch, gibt es den Geist auf ☹️ Böse bin ich ihm nicht: es trug mich mehrfach über die Alpen und hat viel Spaß gemacht.
Aufgefallen ist der kleine Riß weil ich ungewohnte Geräusche hörte und nach dem Steuersatzspiel schaute. Ansonsten ist alles noch unauffällig.
Ich beobachte das Y jetzt mal, reparieren werde ich da nichts mehr. Wenns nicht wächst, fahre ich es einfach weiter. #fahrrad #mdrddG

My 5 hour ride to the Mendips and back got extended after following a new trail I've never done before. I accidentally ended up on the wrong side of the hills.

I did manage to get emergency sustenance in Cheddar from the Gorge Café – special callout for their cider fruitcake. But it did mean that I didn't get home until seven hours after I set off. The sun was actually dipping behind the trees on the final climb -I was starting to worry about whether I was going to need lights.

If I do this route again, I'm going to have to pedal faster.

Even though I felt like yesterday was hard, and maybe a little too much, and even though I was awake from 3am to 7am to drive my eldest daughter to ZRH airport, I still went out for a ride with Jeff this afternoon.
You can see the level of my fitness by how far away Jeff is in this photo. #MTB #Fatbike #AfternoonRide

Photo of a fire road in the woods. No trace of Jeff who is riding ahead of me, and has already disappeared around the bend in the distance.
