Very mixed. There was a fair amount of road work in between, but we followed 5 pages of this, for a route that looked like that… it was 10 miles of missed turns and diversions.
A few lanes were super overgrown rut fests, one was a looooong nice drag through a forest, a couple were up or down hills. Mega long gravel section on the plains, too.
Just a typical day on the lanes.
Did a 100 mile green lane ride yesterday.
It was the local club’s LDT today and a mate travelled down to do it. Yesterday we did the entire route card as a tester to make sure the directions made sense.
Highlights included stepping off when a rut took me out, loose sheep on the lane nearly running through my front wheel, and frequent errors on distance info on the roadbook. The DR350 was fine except when overheating trying to get it turned around in ruts.
Spent all day today doing the observation for a section of the trial, so got to play about on the Sherco a little in between groups of riders coming along.
