Not quite a TR I guess, but I'm bored so I'll post.
Went for an afternoon ride through Walnut, a nice city near me.
Start of the trail. The bike is a Mongoose Rockadile (lol) that my buddy gave me. It needs a bit of TLC... I did manage to record a downhill time of 6:42 or something on the timed section. I basically don't have brakes. The rear brake doesn't really work, and the front is at 50% or so, which compared to a modern hydro disc brake on a good MTB is more like 15%.
Going up...
Switchbacks
Nice area
The start of the downhill. I rode this trail a couple weeks ago. In those two weeks or so, the Mustard and weeds have grown significantly, so I was unable to actually see the trail, thus resulting in me speed-bushwhacking downhill without good brakes. Fun.
Mustard!
Nice Walnut groves
WTF vine is this? Note strange fruit.
Total of about 12 miles. Started raining at the end, and I snapped this pic:
