Legend
I kinda have a thing for maps. They seem to represent a reality better than the reality itself, or whatever. . . . I have spent zero time thinking about it and lots of time studying trail and road maps where I ride and that's what I like.
Robert was out there at Freedom Park last weekend GPS’n the trail. There in the black is the mile or so addition to this very quiet James City County mtb trail. Sally, Mike and I rode the trails again this weekend and I thought often about where on the GPS image we were and how those satellites were now bouncing off us. Total ride loop mileage with the addition is 6.1 
miles. We did 4 loops both last week and today.

(right, I am posing with an atlas and another of my favorites, Tupper's Hop Pocket Ale. Sally took this photo in Harrisonburg last year after she began to notice how much time I was spending with the map!)
