Arcadia - The Mt. Tom Pearson Loop

  • Place: yep, Arcadia
  • Trailhead: end of Austin Farm Road (beautiful drive)
  • Riders with OMMB: Tom, Bruce, John, and Skip
  • Miles: 10.5 by GPS app, it was more
  • Weather: perfect!
  • Temp: 57 at trailhead (almost chilly),  70 afterwards
  • Trail Conditions: excellent, technical
  • Whoops, Yikes, and Oh Sheets: several whoops, no blood

Notes: Tom lead us on an entertaining loop with Mt. Tom at the midway point.  Fun trail with lots of variety. I hope I redeemed myself, after the shellacking I took the last few rides.  Temps were right for me, kept up with the group almost to the end of the ride!

Skip, Bruce, and John cranking up Mt Tom.

Great whalebacks.

And nice views.

Bruce focusing on "up".



And quite a bit of this too!

Skip getting ready to hop up some ledges.

Happy Trails,
OMMB
