Perfect sunny day, 84 degrees and dry fast trail conditions. Great early ride first 7 miles into C and the gas tank went dead dry... Total exhaustion hit, could barely pedal, overheated, muscular failure. No reason either than getting over a pretty bad cold and I was pretty hot internally. Almost another hour to go 4 more miles: C-B-A. No way I could ever think about D. Killed me Highland with your never ending turns and slow 5.8 mph pace. Check out the Stava points-all points I had to stop and break. 1:52 to go 11 miles total. This place kills. Highland you win. No wonder no one is ever here.
