Today I rode to one of my happy places, some small falls above Lake Woodford. The creek flows slowly down a rock shelf before tumbling 10m straight down. I always stop here when I do the circuit.

@thefathippy this is one of those (many in the Bluies) rides where an eMTB would make the ride home so much less painful. It’s just a hard slog to even move slow coming home

@corduroy

Very much so. I've now e-ridden every firetrail climb from the lake without stopping. Even when I was younger, light, & fit I could only get up some of them without a stop. Downhills and flats are a little slower, but much the same, while uphills are well... almost enjoyable. 😂 Being able to do them makes a huge difference.

An old Bluies riding friend told me he *prefers* climbs now he has an eMTB. We both hated climbing and lived for high speed descents!
