Started out with 6 of us at Anne’s Greenhouse but added two more before we had got to St. Patrick’s. Eric wasn’t able to lead/ride again, so I filled in. Good for me we had Ben and Dave to help with directions besides just my Garmin. It was good with Ben up front, because SAG and SAD were the caboose on this ride most of the time.

We followed the Equinox Marathon trail from St Patrick's to Ester Dome Road. Pausing a few times and stopping along the Equinox Marathon Trail at the old Ford Galaxy 500 to get everyone caught up. Proceeded up Ester Dome Road to Corner Single Track. We all decided after riding/walking up it last week, that down was much more fun.

The GPS had us turning at JARR, but it was covered and looked unridable. Dave quickly reminded us that there was an alternate entrance right down the trail. It was clear! Off we went, JARR was in great shape, and an absolute blast to ride, though Kurt found the 2 feet of swamp and fell over in it.

Dave found some mud and decided to take a quick rest before we hit Henderson. We took the Happy Ridge trail down to St Pat’s and back to the Anne’s Greenhouse pullout. Nikki and Mike brought brownie cookies, which were a great way to end the ride.
