Mountain Biking - Surveyors Ridge - August 15, 2007

Back to Mountain Biking Photo Gallery Main Page

Another beautiful day for a Dusty Deva ride! It was a a chilly morning but it quickly warmed up. The Surveyors Ridge trail is in great shape with only one log across the trail. A bit dusty due to lack of rainfall, but hey, we ARE the Dusty Devas! We only had one small breakdown - a snapped chain link- but it was quickly fixed. Heard some rustling noises in the bushes, and saw some nice, large cat prints in the thick, powdery silt, but whatever it was, it left us alone...

12.6 miles one way
