What was confusing was every where I turned it had arrows to judgment day. I kept thinking, how the hell do I keep ending up on this same trail! After reading the reviews again I realized it was a race they had, jeez take down the signs. My Strava app said I was through the roof on exertion. I was going to ride the next day but ended up napping a lot. Super nice riding area though and I dug the new pavilion.

The weirdest thing about mountain biking is I never feel like I am really riding that hard but in the end I have blown away stats from riding my road bikes. I did download a new app called trail forks after that ride. Brilliant I tell you. It is like Google maps for trails. I may give the ole Cedar Hill State Park a go tomorrow since it tried to kill me 19 years ago as a large fella.

Nice-I need to check a decent app like that. I did CHSP last week after several years away and it’s as good as ever

All Trails is another good hiking/biking trail app. I've used it to hike before.

Judgment Day is a blast. 10 different trails, 70 or 100 miles of riding, and a 24 hr time limit. I haven't participated the last 2 years due to life changes but it will test your mettle. I hope to do it again next year when I have some spare time to train. I mostly ride road nowadays.

Where the hell you gonna get 70 to 100 miles? Unless it encompasses more than one trail system. My Strava looks like a drunk guy going back and forth lost in the woods I did so many trails out there and I looped back around several times. I did miss the back side of ranger though. Multi complete laps I guess?

Since Cedar Hill tried to kill me one time I gave her a try today. No issues really. I did 8 and then 3. It has more elevation changes then I remember.
