Mountain biking 50 miles really shouldn't be too difficult through the woods of north Florida. Or, should it? Add in some rain onto some already saturated soil in low spots and you get a nice recipe for mud. Kudos to the Suwannee Bicycle Association for keeping the ride on even though they had to change up the course multiple times to keep us on mostly dry trails!

The ride was fun again this year but was at times painfully slower due to the wet and muddy sections. It certainly wasn't awful and it did make for some fun. However, the wet soil and mud can certainly eat in to your energy reserves. Still, a good ride in the woods all in all. I decided to skip one of the last sections that I found out would be pretty wet and did a few loops to get my fifty miles in. My Ibis Exie was a little bit of a mess but it cleaned up just fine.

If you watch the entire video, you'll hear some banging on my microphone. I apologize for that but it doesn't last the whole video, only to about the 6 minute mark. For all you mountain bikers, if you're anywhere close to north Florida next January, you should give it a try. There are lots of ways to bail out and make it shorter. I spoke with one rider who said she only made it to the lunch break last. year so her goal was to do one more leg after that. Awesome stuff!

I do appreciate you riding along. If you would please subscribe to the channel and hit that like button if you're inclined to do so. Much appreciated. Now, go get outside!
