Skyline trail in Napa ain't bad.

Today's track looks a little something like this.

Moving speed was a bit slow but you want to save a little something on the easy bits here as the tricky bits require short bursts of power.

One tricky bit was so tricky, that even when I dismounted and tried to walk through, I slipped and fell and did a nice shin-grind across the top of a knife edged rock. Like so:

Words may have come out of my mouth at that moment to express the sensation, but they probably don't bear repeating here.

Short story: 2 hrs moving time, 30 minutes stopped. 1800 ft elevation. Average heart rate for me was 144 which is a bit low (let's do another loop!) but peak was 184 and there is no shortage of peak effort spots in this park.

This guy drove us all there. He don't need no suspension, or clipless pedals.
