    So I was talking to a guy at work last week. Apparently night rides on mountain bikes are a popular thing. Who knew?

    Yep. There was a group at Auburn that would ride at Chewacla State Park after hours. Had lights on their bikes and helmets. I went a couple times. Its a little unnerving when you first try it.

    I’m definitely going to start doing it so I can continue to ride after work. Maybe Scotty will do a night ride on a bike....

    I'm most likely not. Lol. If I'm running out of daylight, I'll just save my longer rides for Saturday mornings or my off Fridays.

    I think by me liking that same post, it sort of offsets the amount of fame we have. Sorry.

    just a few clicks of looking at it, pretty similar, except most trails at monte sano have one side that you absolutely do not want to fall down...trussville looks fairly even on both sides of the trail?

    you da man. I'm up for whatever, just want to do as much as possible without depleting my resources lol. Just gauge it for if you can survive, then I might be able to as well.

    I’m kinda with you on the easier to start but it really doesn’t matter to me. I need to be home before like 5pm because Amy will be watching Oscar for me and she will get annoyed if I take literally the entire day haha. But let’s do as much as we can. Physical limitations will probably stop me honestly.

    Haha true that. I’m motivated just because it’s new to me too. I enjoy monte sano but it’s a lot harder to want to do something you’ve done 50 times vs something brand new.

    enjoy man, always good to have some time off.

    I'm just ready to ride again, I haven't even tried out my new tires or pedals!

    Wanted to play on it a little last night even just in the yard, but Leo got into some chocolate at Amy's on Sunday...so we made him throw up with peroxide...well he stayed at my house yesterday and we came home to diarrhea everywhere on the old carpet so that jumpstarted me tearing out that old carpet and occupied my entire night lol. probably more of the same tonight.
