A Good Idea at the Time

I took advantage of the great weather today to get a few hours of singletrack in, as the mountain bike has definitely been feeling neglected. With IC King Park being only 5 minutes away from downtown Knoxville, it has the reputation of being a great place for a quickie. And the mountain biking is pretty good too.

The weather finally worked out to leave Knoxville with pristine and dry (mostly) singletrack for the first time in recent memory. Today was nearly perfect for February, with mid 50s temps, along with a good amount of wind. There were some gusts coming off the lake that made me glad I wasn't out on the road. IC King only has 8 miles or so of trail, so getting the necessary ride time in definitely required some loops. I called it a day after getting a little over 30 miles in. Bring on the hamster wheel...
