Smooth Sailing Yet? From Tyler, we headed toto Degray Lake and Iron Mtn. WE arrive nice and early but find no electricity at the campsite. They’re fixing the power at our usual campground, so we ride our favorite trails, with small rock gardens, some climbing and flowy downhills. Purple spiderwort in bloom all along the trails. We are already used to the “manyana factor”, so we decide to head to another COE campground on DeGray Lake. Camping is at the other side of the lake at Edgewood. We spend a very nice, peaceful night. The Iron Mtn Trails were in great shape. They’re getting ready for Saturday’s National Mtn Bike Marathon Championships. Glad we got there and rode before everyone arrived or after the race (when the trails might have been beaten up).
