We opted against riding today and instead ventured out on a hike to the top of Mt Boney. After two hours of some rather strenuous climbing (uphill hiking) we decided we had done enough, given we had to turn around and get back to the car. We weren't at the 'summit' but we made it to the top of the ridge. Enough was enough. You'd think two hours of uphill would translate to maybe 90 minutes of downhill, but the trail was so loose and steep, that going down it wasn't much faster than going up it. By time it was all said and done, it took us maybe 2:05 to get to the top and 1:55 to get back to the car. Four hours of hiking is enough for me in one day. Ouch!
