It had been a long time off, but it was time to get back in the swing of things!

Missy joined us for a little spin around the park. We ventured out onto the fireroads.

All of a sudden as we were climbing a hill we noticed a huge flock of black birds.

They were everywhere just like in that movie. The picture was hard to get. We were climbing a hill and in awe! There were thousands flying across the path and in the trees. It was amazing! We had no idea where they all came from nor what stirred them.

We swung around by the car and dropped Missy off, but continued on for a bit on Forest Exploration.

The worst part about this route is the really big climb in the beginning!

We wrapped up the ride with 10 or 11 miles. For the first day back it was ok.
