Bucks Patrol LBL Mountain Biking

The Bucks left for Land Between The Lakes to go mountain biking on a Saturday morning. After a stop at the visitor center, we picked a campsite, set up camp, and hopped on our bikes. We aimed to bike twenty five miles when we started. The terrain was very good for biking. We went on and off road. We had a few wipe outs and a lot of up hill. We had bagel sandwiches for lunch. After 14.98 miles, we got back at our campsite at about four o’clock. We had shepherd’s pie for dinner, and a very fun campfire ceremony. The next morning, we woke up, ate a breakfast of eggs and sausage, and headed out to a different trail where we biked 6.5 miles. On the way home, we stopped at Taco Bell and got back at four thirty.

We stopped at the golden pond welcome area to get our backcountry camping permits. On the way in we saw these flying agarics which we had to stop and photograph.

We set up camp and headed out on the trail with the goal of riding 25 miles.

We stopped along the way to get a photo of this shelf mushroom, Libor is there to give perspective as to how large it is.

After about six miles we stopped to have lunch of summer sausage sandwiches.

Chippers chewed on his bone during lunch.

We also saw this very interesting fuzzy polypore mushroom.

I took an artistic photo of the sky through the trees for instagram.

We got back to camp around 5, but we were short of our goal, but did manage to do 15 miles, which a couple of the boys need for the biking merit badge.

We made some shepherd’s pie for dinner which looks like it is going to be delicious.
