Greenwood exploring N of Ajax by ripnriding at Garmin Connect - Details

Greenwood exploring N of Ajax by ripnriding at Garmin Connect - Details

I have learned a little bit more about my Garmin on this little tour.  The first thing I learned is that having propmpts on off road trail is in a word...overrated...got sick and tired of the incessant beeping telling me every single change in direction...will leave these prompts to road routes.

Found some really amazing and flowing single track here....turned navigation off and followed the map that I had downloaded either from Tom or one of the internet sites.  Would love to have spent more time out there, however...this was a quick rip on a work day that serves to prep the mind and body for the monotonous driving that the 401 will bring on a sunny summer day ;)  Next time...I'll plan more of an end of day timing and get someone else out to pick up the tempo.

In a word...felt super strong and looking forward to a rather large road ride that will be done North of 7 at the cottage this weekend with Mr. Bowen.  Taking 5 pounds of pressure out of the fork made a world of difference and releasing air from tires definitely instilled confidence in grip from the RR's.

No riding for the next 3 days....running the roads with no time for fun....looking fwd to wknd
