Solo Phone Phind Ride on the Way Home From Rockburn Park


1024101641


Parted with Jen and the kids at Rockburn park for a solo ride on the Surly 1X1.  Conditions were dry and fast with a little leaf cover here and there.  Rockburn>Landing>Log>MC>Old Track>MC>Connector>Ridge ALternate>Ridge>Connector>MC>right at 4 way>RBB down right>RBB up left>RBB down middle>Belmont Woods>home

The second time I passed thru the 4 way I heard a phone ringing..not mine.  I dismounted and followed the sound into the brush and saw the phone in the leaves.  The super lucky phone owner was at his car at the park and ride and had just noticed that he couldn't locate his phone.  15 minutes late the owner and his super nice HTC smart phone were reunited at Montgomery and Elibank;-)  Twas lucky for him that the Blandfords decided not to go to DCCX on Sunday;-)

Also noticed this new sign on Belmont Woods trail where it crosses private land on the way to Rockburn Branch.

Family Ride at Rockburn Park

Beautiful Indian summer weather and a Nys family sighting on the hayride;-)

Drove the kids up to Rockburn park.  The park's got haunted hayrides leaving from the parking lot downhill from the playground but we had no money;-(
Jen was scheduled to meet up with us via MTB as she was biking with the gurlz and rode over to Rockburn.  She broke her chain and rear derailleur and bent up her derailleur hanger pretty good when she got into Rockburn.

Ben and I went for a ride around Rockburn together.  He was cleaning everything and shifting smartly....that's my boy!!  Ben and I got back close to the car and ran into JoJo and the girls.  Jen was assisting JoJo on the trail with his 12" Trek sans training wheels.  Hopefully in a couple more sessions he'll be more independent.  Abby, Ben, and Elisabeth rode the log jam (with just a little assistance from mom or dad).
