My first post

I've finally decided to try this. I don't know how long this will last but, I guess we'll find out. I'm not sure what I'm going to write about. I guess it will just be what I'm doing. I'll just jump in.

I just got back from riding my cross bike. My first race of the season is next weekend Oct. 20 in Yreka. Then on Sunday I'm racing the last of the STXC Norcal series in Weaverville. I have the Northern California Beginner Over 40 title locked up. I'm hoping that nobody in the Beginner Over 40 class show up for this race. If so I could be the State Champion. I've been riding out at the Cadra Ranch lately for cross training. I'll try to figure out how to post some pictures.
This is how the ride starts out. Gravel road.















Then it changes to two ruts. Is that called double track. It's so pretty that, when you're actually there you don't notice the power lines.

The trail goes out to a point next to Lakes Earl and Tolowa.













This is the trail coming back from the point.

















Then it loops back a different route to a Spruce forest.














It finishes through the forest. I usually do two laps.

Okay. That's my first post. I'll try to learn how to improve.
