Fountain Head
Here are some pictures and videos of Fountain Head.
Overall, the trail was a great training ground. It was very hilly. It felt like 90% of the course was going up a hill. There is also a viscious downhill at the end. I fell 4 times due mostly to the sand at various spots. It may sound like we didn't have fun but we all want to go back. It was such great training! ~Andrew

Parking Lot

Gearing Up

The guy sitting on back of truck kept staring at us.

Seesaws. All three of us did the right one. Randy did both.

Long log to balance on. Randy did the whole thing.

Downhill at end. Andrew fell at the top. It was very steep!

Gambrill State Park
We made our venture into Gambrill State Park this past weekend. I will say one word about that place - ROCKY. It was a very technical ride because of the rocks, but it was very fun. I personally felt it was good training. We couldn't bike the entire ride though because it was too rocky in several places. So, it was a mixture of biking and hiking. Overall, I had fun but would only do this once a year. ~ Andrew

The first 10 minutes of ride involved going up a hill that was very rocky. This is us after going up the hill. Most of us got off our bikes and hiked. Several of us were exhausted.

Patrick and Matt contemplating how to go over rock.

Rest of us wondering if Matt and Patrick will make it over the rock.
