731 Day's Of Riding- Arney Mtn Oct 19th 2024

 Saturday Oct 19th 2024 would mark a unofficial streak or milestone. That bein 2 year since first rode outdoors again after my July 28th major knee surgery. October 19th 2022 was the first ride outdoors.

365 Days Riding Since Major Knee Surgery Oct 19th 2023

Oct 19th 2022 would be 730 days of rides. Meaning every day outdoors. No matter the weather nor abysmal Kingston snow plowing ops.


With the weather being warmer and water levels lower than last year. And with the idea of doing something of an adventure to do on ride day 730 aka 2 years straight. Thinking of how the water levels are lower had the idea to attempt something couldn't last year.


So headed up to Wagarville east of Parham to first bag the summit of Arney Mountain for the 3rd time. This time with the addition of the idea to attempt to once bagged the summit and descended to push down the Unmaintained Road as far as I could.



More can be found in the YouTube link above about the adventure.




Before descending though cleaned up a pile of empty beer cans left by those using non meant engines means. Funny how one powered by a meat engine can haul it all down while those with easier means do not.



After successfully pushing as far south I could and getting back to the Dirtbag Ute. Headed south on Highway 38 and with lots of day light left. Headed to check out a area where have heard of some riding taking place. However when got there heard periodic rifle firing. Figured a local was zeroing their rifle prior to one of the Fall hunting scenes. No biggie, let that person have their time in the woods in the sand pit, 



So instead headed to another spot along the Napanee River where there was something wanted to ride for fun. That bit of fun can be seen in the YouTube video linked above.


After riding that  pulled out the fire pit and fired it up to have a small bit of warmth as I wanted to see the sunset. Plus would be a test of the dirtbag repair of the collapsible firepit.  After that made some Ramen type noodles as well as soup. Then watched the sunset and the stars slowly appear.

Then it was time to load up and head home with ride day 731 done.731 days of straight riding since recovered from major knee surgery. An achievement according to a friend.
