Fall!

Fall is upon us and it's getting cooler out there!

Yesterday I took the ole Element out in the Fells and it was amazing. The bugs were all but gone, trails that were overgrown a few weeks ago already have their plants receding and spots that all summer were wet and muddy were pretty much dried up. It was the first time since I can't remember when that I didn't come home with a fresh spackling of mud on me or the bike. I love fall.

We're coming up on Fat Tire Narnia on October 9th. FTN is a celebration of mountain biking and beer (two things that go hand in hand) and this year we'll be heading from the Middlesex Fells near Boston to the Kingdom Trails of Vermont in a New England expedition of riding and good brew. Should be SICK. Let me know if you want to attend.

Otherwise I'm rehabbing my eternally injured ankle and looking towards the 2010 race season. Look for more posts from me soon.
