100410 Brown County
neill, 06:30h
After two days of non cycling exercise, I was out mountain biking again today :-)
Three of us drove to Paintball Valley ( http://www.valleybranchretreat.com/ ) in Brown County. Here there are about 30-40kms of mountain bike trails.
Our American colleagues had lent us their mountain bikes - thanks Mike, thanks Pat.
The three of us set off to the far side of the area - up ridges and down valleys. Good fun.
Right across the other side of the park Wolfgang broke his derailer holder and could no longer ride. I cycled back and got the car which I then drove round to pick him up (after he had waded a river). He took the car to try and get the bike repaired in Columbus while Norbert and I crossed the river and then cycled back through the woods.
We soon got totally lost but we had the owners dog along that knew the way so we followed the dog and eventually got back to camp.
Good fun.
