The sun has been shining in Washington for about a week straight and this means that the Cap forest trails begin calling to me.

Loaded up and entering cap forest this morning.

It was all worth it. The best singletrack in the world and GREEEEEEN. You've never breathed crisp fresh air until you've been on this trail.

Then we headed to my house for some post ride eats. I whipped out some grilled goods and we each made our own tacos.

Which trail/s were you on? I think I'm heading out there this Saturday and wondering what to ride.
