June 21 A 40 Mile Test Ride

I went a lot farther than I thought I would today, past Mecca out to and beyond the beginning of Box Canyon Road. The other day Google Maps, which works really well most of the time, directed me onto Tamarack Road. That turned out to be a dirt road. I needed to see if Box Canyon was going to be a paved road or as the road the crosses it, Painted Canyon Road, just a 4-wheel drive accessible track. Turns out that Box Canyon is great. Today I did 40 miles in 4:30 hours over mostly  a flat route. Tomorrow’s ride finishes with that 1,900 foot climb. I will be without internet access for a few days. Bonnie will post where I am and still alive for me.
