It was great to leave work a little early and head to the trail for the second Friday in a row.
For me at the moment there is no such thing as a bad ride. But tonight was challenging. The way up was good, and almost the fastest time. But I lost my nerve on the way down, and had several controlled dismounts on the switchbacks.
My left hand index finger got pretty cold and numb, I was worried I’d struggle to brake.
It felt like my progress plateaued, which instinct tells me is a good thing.
I was overall unfocused and undisciplined, and need to do better tomorrow.
