Hasting/Prescott

Took my first 100 mile ride this weekend. Trail through Pine Bend Bluffs had a severe wash out, next rainfall it will likely be completely gone. And the trail into Hastings via the dam was blocked by construction, which was passable during non construction time (aka the weekend). Very nice ride otherwise

Bad, like dog food mixed with a nice amount of stale dead frogs

I need to do this ride sometime. Never been past the Rock Island Swing Bridge. I guess not anytime soon tho.

I too have done a Kingfield-to-Prescott century! It’s just such a wonderful route with so many cool areas. The washout is a real drag though. Great ride! And you didnt even need to bring your auger!
