Elk Neck Christmas Eve Ride. We had a great group of 15. ( 5 of the 7 Spot boys were there) and the wool made this SPOT brand whore smile. This ride reminded me of so many great gruop rides down here. It was awesome. 3 years ago, many trails were closed, and bikes were generally not welcome. Some of that has changed recently. Fuzzy lead the loop, which is much shorter than the old loop, but is still wonderful. Elk Neck is incredibly technical, but not in the rocky kinda way, but in the tight, twisty, rooting, off camber way. Perfect if you ask me. It took me a good 30 minutes to get my mtb bearings back. A couple of silly early stacks, and I was on my way. We had a very festive ride. The ride itself was the idea of TedLogic. He and Fuzzy did an outstanding job maestroing. This was the first time I touched a bike since nationals, and man was it fun. Up top at the look out we had a chance for us all to sit back and take it in. We were stoked to have home town hero Katie and KidChris join us. Needless to say, I'll be back to Elk need Monday morning.
