Spent the weekend hitting fireroads in the Elizabeth Furnace area. What a beautiful few days to unplug and spend some time in the woods.

You might already know this, but if you ventured off those fire roads and onto the singletrack, you’ll find some of the most rocky and technically difficult singletrack within a couple of hours of DC. I absolutely love them, but don’t get out there often enough. I mean, how can you resist stuff like this?

1) Didn’t bring the correct bike (intentionally, to avoid the temptation, which leads to #2)
2) Not good enough to survive that with my collarbones intact!

#2 – true dat! These pics aren’t recent, but I took them at Elizabeth Furnace on sections that my buddy tried with mixed results. My collarbones threatened to spontaneously explode if I even so much lined up to attempt them

Well, it feels good to have a working laptop again! I’ve got other news to share about my escapades in my new home of Tukwila, Washington, but I will save that for later. The important thing is now I can start going back to finishing some of the projects I was in the middle of when my old laptop died.

I had luckily saved videos on my bike camera from my final morning bike commute in August, so I put together a video of the primary route I would use to get from my apartment near the Mark Center in Alexandria to my office in the Ballston area of Arlington. More to come, but enjoy for now:

Rode in Davis this weekend. A lot of the lower portions of the trails look like this:

Did you make it up moon rocks? My buddy and I tried about 5 times each before he finally made it and I gave up and walked the last part.
