On Sunday a ride at White Clay was in order. It has been to long since I have felt the flow of these trails. As the ride started it was clear the trail conditions were really good. Not to wet, not to dry, and monster grip! These trails were as fast as the riders ability could take them. Uphills were easier then usual and corners were pure speed!
A couple of months ago the 34 tooth chainring was added for more speed on flat and rolling sections of trail. Trips to White Clay have been few and far between due to weather and other commitments. However, I have been waiting to use this gear ratio at WC. I was not disapointed. With the smooth transitions and perfect trail conditions I was able to keep my momentum while shaving almost 15 minutes off my usual loop.
The sections of trail in the shade were in the best shape. They still had some dampness to them that made them even more grippy.
The above pictures do a better job of describing the day then I can. It was a great 3 hour ride.
