Purisma to Skeggs Epic

purisma-skeggs-epic-1 What a day on the bike. Close to 40 miles of dirt and 8,500' of climbing through the trails off Skyline in the Peninsula. It was cool and crisp all morning and afternoon. The trails were perfect, a little dry, but otherwise super fun. I expected to see more riders out, but only came across a handful of people. I started at noon, and had plenty of time to get to Skeggs, do a few loops and make my way back before the sun started to set. I love these kinds of rides, long miles and lots of climbing. True expedition and adventure.

The final climb back is a killer. I took my time, having had a only a single bottle of water and no food for the entire ride, but the view was incredible.
