Another day on the foothills and what a beauty it was! I felt great after 3 days off and was ready to get back at it. Today I thought I'd test my custom iPhone mount so I could video the ride up Ridge Crest, across Central Ridge, around Shane's Loop, and down Bucktail Trail. The mount kinda worked, but it kept slipping on the handlebars. I'll have to come up with a better solution. The video wasn't all that great either. It looked a bit like I was underwater.

I improved my official time over last week by about a minute. That includes having to stop a few times to mess with the video. In all I think I shaved more like 3 minutes off. I still have a ways to go to get to the shape I was in last year, but I'm making progress!
