yes, it’s pretty spesh out there at night right now. Warm, dusty trails and pretty clear skies.
We did a couple of hours on Wednesday night – group of seven, absolutely great.
It also really spices up familiar trails. I don’t know what hit my pedal on one descent, it resulted in one of those ‘groin nearly down on the top tube just behind the stem, bike waggling wildy’ moments. Thankfully I just had the strength to get my weight back again before the front wheel hit anything!
Whatever it was, I didn’t see it on the way back up, either!
There’s another nice sliver of singletrack on that route, where the slightly over-grown grass hides big-ish rocks just off the edge of the trail. You can just see them in the light, but not with lights – made it much more of a challenge.
I’m hoping to be out again on Saturday and Tuesday – can’t wait!
