Iowa

Boone, Iowa - Seven Oaks recreational area
Out here for work for the better part of this week, needed to get my fix in. Thought I would share.
Terrain=smooth twisty singletrack.
The trails are throughout a ski area, fairly small by New England standard, but big for Iowa. Lotsa switchbacks up and down the "mountain".
Borrowed a Trek Fuel EX7, now I know what you are thinking; "Dan, I thought you were a SS 29er rigid freak?" I am, but I needed to ride, so small wheels, suspension, gears, and flat bars would have to do.

Ended up doing a counter clockwise loop, got to the car, refilled my water bottle and went back out, this time clockwise! 14 miles total. Wahoo!
Felt good.
