went solo today... litte T and bouquet canyon. bouquet canyon is so fun. i love it bec there's way less elevation changes. little T is going up and down going through 2 mountains but it's a nice practice since i suck at downhill corners.
i encountered a sheriff ranger patrol but he was kind enough to let me pass.
on the way back... 1 rider ran wide in front of me from the oncoming lane and he quickly turned back into his lane and held up his hand as a sign of apology. it was kinda scary but good thing it was a tight turn and i wasn't going fast.
weather was cloudy but not windy. perfect!
i was working on not sitting on the bike while cornering and it takes a lot out of your legs and upper body.
it feels like a nice workout though but i still need a lot of practice on this technique that i should have known a long time ago.
perhaps when i get the hang of this thing... it will make fix my grip on the bars as well. im still putting too much pressure than i need to on the handlebars.
but anyway... a nice ride overall.
