Flume Trail

 So here is a funny story about my sister Julia.  She decided to take us on a mountain bike ride when we were in Tahoe.  I have always wanted to take Kerisi on the Flume trail which was part of the ride she wanted to take us on so we thought...perfect.  She had done the ride before and thought it would take us about 3.5 hours.  We both thought this was on the long side considering we don't bike much these days but thought it would still be fun.  Well Julia's interpretation of time while exercising is a little off.  First of all we ended up starting a little late to begin with because of traffic and then it took us almost 6 hours.  It didn't help that we stopped to look at the view every 10 minutes because of the unbelievable views...and that the last hour we were biking it pitch black with our iphones for flashlights.  All-in-all it was a lot of fun and we would do it again, just start earlier next time maybe.  Oh and bring more water. 





Oh I forgot to mention that we only brought 16oz water bottles each and ran out of water after the first 1.5 hours.  Lucky for us we found a water well at the top of the mountain.
