Friday evening, after work, went down to White Rock and did the loop with DORBA for only the second time this season. Saturday morning, went down to the L.B. Houston trail to help with DORBA's Take A Kid Mountain Biking Day. Not a great turnout, in terms of numbers of kids, but the ones that came out with their parents seemed to have a good time. Met some more of the DORBA bunch, ate some hot dogs, and rode a couple loops of the trail—which pretty much doubled my total singletrack miles for this season. Kind of pathetic, really.
Today was the Greater Dallas Bicyclists' Fall Fiesta at Breckinridge Park, in Richardson. Didn't get to ride the 27- or 40-mile rides, choosing instead to stick with Sweetie and to help with the short kids' route. Kind of scary, since we were out on some reasonably busy two-lane roads. With the nice paved trails in the park, we made a mental note to stick there, next year. Great fun, though. Turnout was good and got to meet a bunch of the members I'd only talked to on the forum before. Sweetie had fun too, and I really felt like the GDB bunch are making her one of their own.
