Wrtaylo being the Queen’s master led us through most of the Doyle bottom loop and a bunch of stuff that I can’t name. I really need to learn that place so that I can guide through there but there are so many trails that go in so many directions. I just need to go get lost a few times instead of blindly following and going weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee this is fun.
Just as we started to get going I noticed my front tire was a little squishy, so I put some air in it and hoped for the best. Next thing you know, less than four miles into the ride my back tire goes flat after I rolled a log. I took the tire off to see a huge thorn sticking out of it.
When I pulled my last spare tube out of the bag, it had lost the presta valve, whoops. Luckily two other folk were rolling 29’ers and I borrowed a tube from 4000PSI, thanks! Yes, I realize I can use 26" tubes but I need durability.
I have had a barrage of thorn related flats, just as I have done well with lost contacts. Hopefully, I am getting all of this out of my system.
I felt really good last night as we rolled mostly single track. My new gearing 32X21 works really well out there. It was a great night to be had by all.

The Drunken Monkey says "Hello UpstateSC-rider."
There is literally 0 signage at "The Queen," sometimes you get street signs.
