A decade ago, I kind of built this trail and told people about it then everybody started riding on this even with motor bikes and horses. So today this is what it looks like. I rode it during the weekend and what a blast it was!
I rode on my mountain bike and climbed up to Willow Creek by going up Power Line, Green Gate Road, and the Canyon Road. After the Green Gate Road climb, I was already spent and while climbing up the main canyon road, I was already cramping up. I wanted some electrolytes but I didn't have any. Next time, I am putting Hammer Nutrition Fizz tablets in my water. See if that works next time.
So I crawled up the rest of the way, by crawling, I mean just spinning easily to the top. I even had to take breaks. I made it though, and the downhill on the Maple Syrup and the Flume was a blast. It was worth the crawl. Earlier the week, I even had another fabulous ride. It was a 35.5 mile ride to Mount Pleasant and back. I took the Little Pigeon Hollow dirt road then on the Spring City back road. I like the Spring City road because of the wide shoulder. I was planning just to ride to Spring City and back but I felt good so I rode another 5 miles to Mount Pleasant. It was a great evening and the spring water from the spring fountain in Spring City was delicious. It was a great week event though I went on a few rides on that week. I even rode the cruiser bike and town quite a bit.
