Camping 2018

I guess it is time for a post. I didn't get out on the bike as much as I usually do on our annual camping trip but I did get in a few good rides.

The first ride was a 40ish mile loop that was planned on some scenic back roads with some gravel grinding logging roads thrown in for fun.  That was the plan.  Most of the plan came to pass but some of the logging roads turned into skidder paths and snowmobile trails. There was some hiking.  I would have taken some pics of the rough terrain but the deer flys might have drained me.
This is a lot steeper than it looks

Who wouldn't want a sleigh in their front yard?



Route 153 in New Hampshire was spectacular with great views and new tar
Freedom New Hampshire, very cute town.
This was one of the more passable roads.

I did get a short rip out into Brownfield Bog which includes lots more deer flys and one of my favorite sections of trail up to Walker's Ripps. The trail follows the river bank with a combination of light technical and flowy double-track.
