This weekend wanted to go for a ride. STR (Staurday Trail Ride) was interesting. Saw some pictures from their previous rides and was wondering whether I would be able to actually match up with their pace. Anyhoo we (me & Kalyan) started @ 0545 and reached the rendezvous point @ 0600. Met the other riders and off we went. Well, i saw the black tar road only for few minutes. The lead pack jumped off the road and it was dirt road (most of the time).
We were tailing and was slowing down the group. Awesome group of riders. Very patient with us 
I simply loved the ride. Some of the stretches had surprises. Then tried some jumps (ahemm 
)
And my bike is dirty ! Finally .. felt like i did some justice to trek over this ride .. Hoping to do more.
