I almost rode right past my typical 7 mile MTB jaunt today, because it poured rain all night and I figured it would be sloppy. But I hadn't been on the MTB for a few weeks since I snapped the rear derailleur hanger, so I dived in.

I almost got killed about 10x thanks to wet roots, rocks, etc. Plus there was a fair amount of dead leaf carpet which will only get worse over the next couple of months. It was ugly. You guys are all completely insane.

Plus my rear derailleur was shifting the chain off the cogs into the spokes, have to get that adjusted (it hasn't been the same since I replaced the hanger). So it was a bit of an adventure. But good to be back on the MTB. I prefer the woods when they're dry however.

But of course it was a very good workout. 32 miles including 7 in the woods on single track.
