I didn't even plan to do this
I woke up early and was bored and didn't feel like sitting around the house all day
So I bottled up some water and took off (psssmmmm cyyyyaaaa)
Found a hidden trail by fort jackson -( is the largest and most active Initial Entry Training Center in the U.S. )
Open to the public, I had no idea it was a 16 mile trail from beginning to end .
I ran out of water before I made it to the end
I some how made it home without dehydrating
Fucking astounding 
And I found about a pound of chanterelles SUPER !
without water or a cell phone I had to stress my body to the limit
In the long run, It made me stronger 
thank god my grandma hooked me up with a couple darvocet
I'm so sore all over
fuck me its thunderstorming now 
anybody else do something 'crazy today ?

Chanterelles?
ARE THOSE KANTARELLER mushrooms? I pick them in Sweden all the time, my grandparents and I love them.
And no, i did nothing crazy, my Texan aunt and uncle are here visiting though.
Good to see you had an adventure

i love biking, many trails to ride around here. unfortunately it's too hot right now.
i had a similar experience though. me and a friend went riding for about 3 hours, i come back and calculate that i went at least 25 miles if not more. i was surprised because it was super easy. i want to ride more but waiting for it to cool down.

a total of well over 25. unfortunately it was spread across several greenways so i made a conservative estimate. it was probably well over 30.

my ex had problems keeping up with me because she didn't know how to use the gears to her advantage, it helps a LOT if you know how to use them. i used to ride a bunch when i was younger when my brother had a real nice mountain bike so i'm decent at it.

growery bike meet!
I've done 140 km in a day which is 86 miles.
Around 8 hours of biking total. That was in 2004 or 2005 though.
38.9 miles is pretty mean, thats maybe 2-3 miles less that a trip to my farm 4hours away( times vary)
Last night I biked through a whole bunch of neighborhoods all over town, went through a couple parks and fields. Busted both my peddles one going through those concrete things they put infront of parking areas so cars bump them... and the other when I went through gravel from my weight being thrown to one side... I think it was cracked already.
Probably 40-45 km or so in 2 trips. I went for an hour and a half doing around 25 km then went home briefly and went again for the weird journey. Could be up to 55 km... but I'm not sure.

If it's getting difficult to pedal at a steady pace, downshift. What exactly is confusing?
Sadly, I have no bike since a tweaker stole it  ... I really want to try this badass downhill challenge course that I found. Looks potentially lethal, but if you survive the ride it'd be completely

potentially lethal is k3y
when I was in elementary school I went down a 2 story hill with a jump at the end... I flipped over my handlebars and my bike hit me.
my neck hurt super bad for like over a month.

so saturday night, im riding my bike home and i see some crack head on his shitty bike ghost riding a brand new sweet bike. he obviously had just stolen it a second ago because he was jetting from the main road and into little side streets (its a really small downtown). i ask how much and he gets all scared and tries to lose me. he ends up tossing the bike into the bushes, with a cut bike lock cable and a helmet.
so now, i've been going around to the LBS to find out if anyones reported it stolen (i've put up fliers too!) and checking craigslist. nothing!
