Met George and Greg at Lake Crabtree County Park at 10:30 for a ride around the trails there as well as some more demanding "other" trails in the area. :)
Another beautiful day, I lowered my basal rate near 09:40 in prep for being on the bike at 10:30. I brought the Kona, although I wanted to ride a geared bike instead. I just wasn't sure what the trail conditions really where, and didn't want to be forced to spend time cleaning a F/S rig.
Was trying to keep the HR lower today, as I have 6 days until the 24 Hours of Burn. When we got into the more technical stuff, I lost contact with the guys. This would lead to George's hysterical blog entry at Dirt Dawg Biker. Too funny! BTW, this did force me to buy a new cell phone that the ringer actually works on....
Back to the vehicle and headed home just short of 4 hours later. Pump set back to a normal 100% basal rate at this time.

Afterwards I headed over to see Marcy at the shop she works in. I was close to her shop, and had a little time available.
While there I was able to ride a new 2008 Trek Remedy 8. Bike is KILLER!! Still looking for a replacement for my 5.5, and this could be a bike for that. A little laid back for XC use, but with an adjustable front fork and a longer, dropped stem it could work perfectly.
I made a small adjustment to my basal rate at bedtime. 90% for 5 hours.
