So i decided to take my freshly converted bike up Stt to the Luge today. It was my first time for this trail on the 1X8 so i was curious to see how much of a difference it would make. Parked at cooks and headed up. Once i hit the dirt i was greeted with perfect conditions. It was nice and tacky with tons of cool marine layer. Made the journey up, took a short break at the flag and then down the luge i went. Made it back to the car in one hour and twenty minutes.

What are some of the usual times it takes from cooks up stt down luge and back to cooks for you guys?

Ha, thats what Fred and I attempted to do on Saturday. It got a little sticky and we decided we better turn back rather than fight the mud and tear up the trail. I decided this morning i was gonna give it another go solo style.
