First mountain bike ride!

On Monday, I found the perfect moment to escape on my mountain bike. It was my first ridehttps://go-11.blogspot.com/2018/08/still-mountain-biking-at-70.html of the season.

Sure, I’m not 60 anymore and every vertical foot gained costs much more energy, but the end result is still priceless.

The conditions were bad. I left home at 10:24 and it was already too hot, but I took my time going up (I had no real other option), I saw close to 100 other riders, mostly kids and families, which is a lot, but returned home in one piece and – most importantly – with the keen desire to do it again, very soon!
