I guess I'm just really diggin' Tryon! I went there this afternoon because the weather was so nice. Cool, low-humidity spring days are the best.
I hit the rocky trail I mentioned last time, and also the "rock ring" which is more technical. I thought I did quite well on both.
At one point I passed an older woman and her dog, and then over the course of 10 minutes I'd ride until I was spent, then just when I was about to go again I'd look back and see her approaching slowly through the trees. It was like something out of a horror movie! It also made me feel like I was no faster than an old lady, which I guess is almost true. lol In actuality I was taking the more winding technical trails and she was on the easier trail that intersected.
I am liking Tryon so much this year, I might just ride it again! It's not far from home, it's technical, has hill climbs, and works well with my current 24" set up. Plus I like how it has many parallel options with different terrain that lead to the same place, so I can keep mixing up my ride.
