Well the weekend turned out nice for once. I got in a good hammerfest yesterday on the TT bike when the clouds finally broke around 5pm.

Today I went out and did a early gravel road ride. The weather today was perfect, the wind was only blowing like 10mph which is light for around here. I grabbed lunch and went back out on my KM and hit some trails...

Somewhere around in there I managed to ride down this. Sketchy, that's one way of describing it. I've had bad dreams about this log ride but getting onto the log has always been rough. Someone built it back up with dirt so getting on it now is super easy. Riding it's a bit different. I took it off to the right the first few times to get a feel of how to dismount when you don't go straight.

Alright, got that down, then I take it off to the right not meaning too and about busted my arse. The fourth time though I managed to ride it all. Once you commit you have to commit. Going off over the creek would be no good... I got that instant adrenaline rush, mainly because it was the biggest and longest round top tree I've ridden. I've gone on some huge flat top trees but you had to be dead on with this one.
