REAL Mountain Biking
I had never been out on REAL mountain bike trails, so I had no idea what I was up against when Heather's friend Mark suggested we go for a ride.
My guess was a cool mountain bike ride thru the trees on a fairly constant rolling hills... WRONG.
The mountain bike trails there in Winona Lake, Indiana (right near Grace Bible College) are nationally recognized. The sheer drops, narrow bridges over streams, logs, low branches and constant root hazards kept me on my toes!
We also almost hit two fawns as they crossed the trail with a doe!
The whole route is about 10 miles and I think we only skipped a small portion - so NOT to exaggerate - we biked 8 miles!!!!
Too fun and I was plenty sore the next day - but am excited to see what kind of trails this area (Virginia) has to offer!
