Hi. My name is Cameron, and I’m a Mountain-bike-aholic. I went out again today for over 1:30 and burned about 1600 calories.
I decided to take the shortcut to Dave’s Loop today to cut out the first 2.5 miles of the trail because I wanted to hit some sections I had skipped before. I took the Technical Loop this time, and the bike and I survived. Yea! There’s some pretty difficult stuff in there. I didn’t crash, but I didn’t have to jettison the bike a couple times to keep from going with it when I got off-balance. I also got to try out the back corner of the trail where Wimp’s Hill is. It turns out that I’m a wimp because I had to get off halfway up it.
Buck Creek Trail is a great trail, especially for this area. I’m mostly taking my time through most of it, and my heart rate still hovers from 160-190 pretty much the whole time. It’s a great workout, and fun to boot!
