I took a break and went back to try my hand at the mountain bike trails.  I did a sweet end over and have a few cherries on my arms and legs to show for it.  This bike (and thus me) isn’t very nimble on these narrow, aggressive trails.  While crossing a rocky stream bed, I blew my rear tire.  Fortunately, I was only a few miles in.  It was another gorgeous day - 78, sunny, light breeze - so walking it back on the road was still great.
