Tuesday Nite Owl - Noodle Salad Mountain Nite Ride

Brrrrr. It was chilly last nite for the ride. Pretty close to freezing temps. None the less, the Whale and the Leprichaun layered up and rode. We decided to mix it up a bit and headed for some different trails. Rather than the normal Mill Mountain trail mix, we headed for Murray Run Greenway and Fishburn Park. It took some route planning and connecting, but we still got plenty of single track riding without leaving town! Thanks to Bill Gordge and his trail building crew in Pathfinders for Greenways!

Watch out for other trail users, though. Despite leaving a skosh later than the usual 8 pm start time, we still saw at two different runners. We were happy to yield the right of way and exchanged cheery hello's.

We also spied what we think might have been a pair of owl eyes spying us from high up in a tree. It was probably the alien assigned to track me, though.

Good times... Noodle Salad.
