I haven't been on any real trails or even woods roads in a while. Prior to COVID-19, I was focusing on strength training and spending time trail running and hiking with Elizabeth & Sam. I picked up the Ibis Ripley a couple of months back from friends up in Vermont at Ranch Camp. This was just before everything was locked down.

I kept the rides indoors mostly since then. This was my first ride outside on the Ripley. I have some work to do to get my fitness back up to respectful. The bike was awesome! I played around with the positioning a bit and practiced riding with it. I can't wait to hit up some fun single track in the New York and New Jersey area...but first I am playing it safe.
