Glad it was recovered. This time it was easy to find it and get it back. Others have not been so lucky.

This area got about two inches of rain over the weekend. May want to wait a few days to dry out.

That is one great picture. Definitely should be magazine worthy.

Waco got about 2 inches so it will be a couple of days before Cameron Park is rideable.

Apparently we didn't get enough yesterday so we'll try again today.

Not for certain but I think an inch or two here in Waco. Smaller chance of rain tomorrow. I'm going to try and hit Cameron Park on Tuesday after I get my tire fixed.

I hardly do any group rides but when I do the only talking I do is for someone to call 9-1-1 for me.

I'm a little biased towards Cameron Park but the trails have been great lately. We haven't had much rain so they are nice and dry.  Well that's  until today's forecast of impending storms.

Tell me about it - at 60 I'm getting breasts that I don't want! 

Thank you all. I do need to go to Austin more and try out the trails. I also want to hit the rocks as well. I love climbing.

thanks for your input from the other side of the fence. definitely adds to the thread.
its not that anyone here doesn't want to ride or share trails with you, this is not about hate or prejudice or anyofthatothershit. its about fairness in the world of competitive sports. dont be passive aggressive. 
"guess we can keep the age divisions" - again, its mainly about fairness, and just simply categorized competition! I dont really want to see the Dallas Cowboys demolish a middle school pee-wee football team (actually i might actually want to see that) any more than id wanna see a biological man smash a womans face and skull in an MMA match. and besides, what's wrong with a little divisions between groups? its ok that everyone and everything isn't just one big blob of everythings-the-sameness. classifications are a good thing. unless you take everything personal and make yourself feel all left out about everything unnecessarily. bummer. 
 

Here's my take and take it for what you will.  I am transgender, MtF. Oh I'm in Waco so you don't have to worry about sharing the trails with me. I'm mixed on the whole thing. So much that I will not enter any race or competition. I would love to but know this would happen. So I just ride for the fun of it. I can say that because I am on hormones that I have lost a lot of muscle mass. Estrogen isn't the idea hormone to be if you want muscles. Bones don't change so I can't say much about that. I would love to be alive for the day that this is solved and everyone is happy. There is no easy answer other than what has been said about making it all one class. Guess you can keep the age divisions.  Most leagues require testosterone levels to be under 10ng/dL and they have to have proof it has been like this for at least 6 months. I don't think most people will do this just to win a race. There is a lot of potential health issues that can come from hormone replacement therapy.

I thought poison ivy was year round here in Texas. At least to me it seems.

Looks interesting.

Thanks for the reply. The biggest drag about this time of year is how it only takes a little bit of rain to close a trail and despite being sunny afterward it doesn't get warm enough to dry the trails out before another rain hits. I was pleased but surprised to see Spider Mtn finally got to pull the trigger and open. 

I know.  I set a goal for the year and I'm off to a very bad start because of this weather. The only nice days are the ones I'm working.

Looked like Waco got hardly a misting yesterday on the weather Channel, anyone close enough to check? I'm just over an hour away.... Further than I want to go if only to turn right back around. 

Home made pickle juice here. We eat a lot of pickles here so there is always plenty of the juice left over.  I mix up the ratio to what  I want and top the rest off with regular tap water.  It has worked great for me during the summers and the winters. Food is usually little things like freeze dried fruit and the sort.

Know the feeling. Every single good day we've had I've been at work.  Day off? Rain and a cold front. 

Battery Plus?

Very nice.

There's a rail trail from Mineral Wells to Granbury: Lake Mineral Wells State Park & Trailway

That is next on my agenda the next time I travel up there. It's just getting the time and group together to go up there.  At least the drive up there can be quite beautiful.

I would love to make another trip to E Rock but I don't think I could stomach the crowds that are out there these days.  I still prefer Mineral Wells as my favorite park. Just love the rock climbing area there.  Plenty of fond memories as well.

Damn.  Just when I thought I didn't have to worry about snakes.
