We finally got to ride Picture Rock yesterday, we rode Heil to Wild Turkey to Picture Rock, turned around before the parking lot in Lyons and rode back up Picture Rock to Wild Turkey, finished the rest of Wild Turkey and headed back down.
My brain hurt from hitting the inside of my skull and my hands could barely hold onto my bars anymore. Heil is a bumpy ride and on the HT it's way worse. The first part of Picture Rock off of Wild Turkey is more of the same but once you pass the Silo's it's smooth singletrack. The climb back up Picture Rock is a nice climb consistent climb with small moves up and over rocks that got the heart pumping and by the end of the ride I was pretty much toast. We finished off the ride in the freezing rain.
So glad we got out before the weather turned sour later that night.
Sunday is going to be a lazy day with just a long hike with the dog and MAYBE a short run if we get completely bored out of our minds.

That's a nice, long, bumpy ride but it's dry..
I like starting in Lyons, a little more flow but not much..glad you got out.
Glad you got your ride in before the frozen rain started coming down! That's a nice long ride. You aren't kidding that Picture Rock, and Wild Turkey, are bumpy on the hard tail!
