Lewisburg Saddle to Peavy loop ride
Took this loop ride for the first time after they opened the roads up again. An area between the Low and high roads had been logged, so both roads were closed pretty much all summer. Bummer. Warm evening. Took a detour down lower Dave’s trail. Nicely weed whacked. Did not go out to the viewpoint because I need to do that around the middle of the month to take my monthly photo.
Lewisburg Saddle to NE loop ride
Had a good ride out to the Peavy Arboretum four corners and then back down the low road. I felt pretty good this time, didn’t have any problems. The weather was fairly chilly, I still needed my fleece jacket and my black rain jacket as well. But no rain this time.
