Went out to Hodges Dam in Oxford yesterday (Sunday) with Biggity and his brother Tim. We were the first ones there at 7 am. It was cold, very cold, about 31 degrees cold. The trails were in good shape but man was I rusty. After about an hour it warmed up a little bit and I started to loosen up. I'm slow, painfully slow at times but I didn't have any get offs, only a couple of pucker moments and had a blast. I only stalled it once, when Mike got stuck on a log right in front of me and covered me in dirt spinning the tire trying to get over it!
The bike (CRF230) was awesome. It takes a while to get warmed up but once it does it ran great. After a couple hours we called it quits and headed back to the parking lot by 9:30ish. It was packed, there had to be easily 2 dozen cars in the lot and lining the road. I was very glad to be off the trails at that point.
All said and done it was a great ride. Seeing the parking lot when I left I really never want to ride there past 10 am on a weekend. Just too busy..
