Trial Run Delta


7/1/06 Here I am up at Mike's land. Stokin'. The ride up here was arduous, especially the last two miles all steep and gravely. I walked most of it. After having trimmed some of the excess crap from my load the bike is a whole lot lighter, easier to manage. I'm diggin' this new bivey sac that I got to replace my tent. The Bikamper was a sweet idea but ultimately impracticle. Bivey sac is like a minimalist cacoon that fits just me. Its kinda neat. Last night I slept with my head pokin' out the flap just starin' up at the stars. I saw a whole lotta shootin' stars and these weird flashes like heat lightning, but no clouds...fascinating.
The ride back was sweet. Down hill the whole way and no headache. I think it took me an hour less to get home then to get there. Aww yeah, I like that.
