Time for glorious sleep

I'm home from what was the most physically challenging adventure I've been on yet. My body is worn down to the point that I could not have continued riding for another day, which means I stretched the cord right to the breaking point, something that I haven't been able to do previously in multi-day events. The AZT is a beautiful but unrelentingly difficult trail, but there are enough sections of spectacular singletrack interspersed throughout that really help you keep pushing and enjoying.

I'm falling asleep as I write this, so photos are all that I'll really post for now. More to come....
