Kristian had never ridden Patapsco Valley State Park in Maryland...so we had to go. The trip down Interstate 83 to Arbutus, Maryland takes a little more than an hour...but the drive and the traffic was worth it. The two of us experienced, possibly, one of the best rides I've had in a while. It was typical Patapsco...twisty single track, log build ups, scattered rock gardens, "Blair Witch Houses," challenging climbs, and "hold on tight" downhills! All in all, 15 miles and 1,600 feet of climbing of mountain biking bliss! It was, in Kristian's words, "Awesome Sauce!"

So...Kristian confided in me today that he's not a big reader and, when I send him my my blog, he really only looks at the pictures. So...let's let the pictures tell the story of today's ride. It really was "Awesome Sauce!"

Yes...literally 10 minutes after Kristian's "Huffy Toss" moment we spotted what looks to be a Huffy at the bottom of the ravine! -- October 15, 2016
