MTB Bend: Forks Figure 8

As the daylight hours shrink into Fall, it becomes a race to eek out every minute of daylight after work. Tuesday's shenanigans took me out to the Skyliners parking lot where I met Josh and we embarked on a mad dash to do the Forks Figure 8:  up North Fork, through Happy Valley, down Farewell and then back up South Fork, along Swede Ridge and back down the connector trail back to Skyliners.

With little time to spare we hopped on the bikes and pedaled into therapy.  It was about 2 1/2 hours of ride time with a little under 23 miles and a little over 3K of vertical gain.   There is a definite nip in the air and soon enough it will be time to bust out the long sleeves and fingered gloves.
