Shepherd's Hill and Avenza Maps

Another fab morning for riding. Train from Mitcham to Eden Hills, then into the reserve. The main reason for today's outing was not just to ride, but to test out Avenza Maps (downloadable app). The South Australian department of Environment has all their park maps available for free on Avenza Maps, and using the app with GPS you can track where you are along the trails within the park you are visiting.
I used the app a couple of times (as long as the phone has GPS signal) and it showed my location along the trail been ridden. Sometimes you ride off down a trail, and at the end it is where the hell are you!
Today I undertook the intermediate downhill trail #1. Actually did this trail twice. Would have ridden it again, but of course, every time you go down, you have to go back up, and some of the hills are steep, and was loosing traction riding.

My second ascent was up Grey Box loop, which was not quite as steep as my first ascent of River Red Gum loop.

An opps moment, hitting the dirt, actually grass thankfully, when my rear tyre clipped a small tree stump. Happened on a downhill link trail.
Need some knee protectors, but the ones I want are currently out of stock world wide! Other than that, had a great morning riding.
