It has really felt good to be able to ride again and I have been working on getting back into shape while taking a measure approach to the riding as the knee gets stronger.\u00a0 \u00a0I certainly do not want to have a relapse of the pain issues.<\/p>\n

North side of Lake Hodges<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

I have been able to get in three rides in this past week.\u00a0 \u00a0 First of was Lake Hodges<\/a> where I did the north and south sides for about a 20 mile effort.<\/p>\n

I did my local ride from the house and felt pretty good on it.<\/p>\n

And I meet my buddy Dave for a ride and La Costa which included some of the Back 40 goodness.\u00a0 \u00a0 Maintaining proper social distancing was pretty easy with Dave.\u00a0 \u00a0I could barely keep him within 100 feet let alone 6 feet.<\/p>\n

Came across this healthy looking bloke out on the trail.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

On the backside trails we came across a Rattler.\u00a0 \u00a0He was pretty happy where he was at so we had to give him some encouragement to get off the trail.\u00a0 \u00a0 There were no sticks of the appropriate length around so I stood behind my bike, held onto the saddle and rolled the bike up close to the snake.\u00a0 One the front wheel got within a foot of the snake he figured it was best to give up his ground.\u00a0 \u00a0 If you have your arm outstretched to you saddle and lean over while you do this you can keep seven plus feet between you and the snake.\u00a0 I like to get these folks away from the trail when I encounter them as you never know when some Ahole is going to come along think these things need to be killed.<\/p>\n

After we got this fellow to move along we finished up the ride.\u00a0 \u00a0I felt really good about how I finished up the ride.\u00a0 \u00a0 It was a good week of ridin<\/p>\n
