New Year's Eve; riding The Epic

The new year, 2013. As was the case last year, no resolutions for new behaviour have been made. Rather, a renewed commitment to continue along the path I’ve been attempting to direct myself these past 12 months. First and foremost, to be a better person; to think before I speak; to approach all people and situations with love and compassion; to be mindful of the needs and feelings of others. Secondly, to ride more, better, smarter and stronger; to be a better cyclist. Lastly, to challenge myself with the unknown, to explore novelty and attempt things I may have otherwise shied away from.

December 31st, 2012, I spent the day with two of my dearest friends and fellow mountain-bikers, Reilly and Rick, riding the 95 km(59 mile) Epic Loop in the Big Bend Ranch State Park. We took about 20 mins longer than last time, mostly due to waiting at the Sauceda Ranger Station in hopes someone would appear to open the store and sell us a Coke, which never materialized. I felt great, much stronger than I did a week ago when we rode this monster of a ride. I rode smooth and steady all day, rather than wilting for the last two hours as I did last week. Although there was that one very sketchy downhill section where Isabelle and I needed to follow divergent trajectories, aka; jumping off and away from the bike a split-second before disaster and bodily injury occurred. Yay baby, mountain biking! For a great description of the Epic Loop, please check out Reilly’s description here.

Upon our return, we and eight other hungry friends drove the 17 miles to Tivo’s Restaurant to dine on scrumptious, authentic, northern Mexican cuisine. Back at my trailer by 9pm, I was asleep by 10pm. A real party animal, I know.
