Around Copeland Forest with Leanimal and 'Bent, both of whom had more zip in their legs than I did today. Some fun single track, speedy double track, steep climbing and equestrian dodging plus occasional breaks for mosquito slapping and spousal "commentary" while 'Bent analyzed the orienteering map at trail junctions. (Time deducted for stops.) I should be reviewing this map too as Lee, 'Bent and I will all be navigating here for different teams at ESAR in a couple of weeks but my mind is still recovering from APEX so I can't get into it yet.
Great to meet Dee, FB and Urthbuoy for lunch at the Crazy Horse pub afterward. The boys had done a long run over from Midhurst and Dee was playing hooky while Logie did the Canada Cup bike race at Hardwood. It's so nice to get these all too rare opportunities to just relax and share stories with AR friends.
