I managed to get a couple of rides in this week. Both mountain bike rides at SWK Tuesday and Wednesday. I'm having a lot of ghost shifting issues with the Rockhound. I messed around with the adjustment quite a bit and I can get it close but never perfect. I have ordered 2 new 9 speed chains, one for the Rockhound and one for the GF. I'm also thinking that the springs are bad on the rear derailleur of the Rockhound so I'm probably gonna pull the trigger on a new Shimano LX RD sometime soon.
I did basically the same route both days. I started at the second parking lot and took CAMBr Freeway to Colossus, via JackRabbit, as Doppelganger is under construction. Did the Colossus loop and headed back to Vertical Velocity. VV to Boulder Dash to Anaconda and out. Wednesday I skipped Anaconda.
Thursday my legs were very sore.
There has been some discussion on the CAMBr Forums about doing an impromtu time trial on a short course at SWK. If it does'nt happened, I will do it on my own so that I can gauge my progress. Currently I cannot ride the entire park, nor can I ride very far without taking a break. My goals for this year will be to;
1) Ride entire park without stopping
2) Time improvements on a short TT course
3) Start a "Goals" page on this blog to track progress
There is a trail workday Saturday and my plan is to ride afterwards if the trails are dry enough.
