I did finish the ride, and am glad that I did!! I loved the road in Fort Ancient, it was so steep and twisty! One twist doubled back on itself so steeply that you could see where vehicles had bottomed out trying to go around it. Needless to say, I took it slow but the feeling of 2nd gear just lifting you up and up is amazing!! Also got air at the apex of one of the hills, which was a first for me. I don't know if I even realized it until my back wheel touched down, and then my front. Poor Jon was stuck behind me and I definitely slowed down after that. All in all, met some good people, tried some super fun roads, great day, thank you all!! And I think I worked on those chicken strips a little more so that's always good.
