As I alluded to yesterday in Fez Finito, I’m also saying goodbye to Jack.
Today was our final ride. Exploring new roads on our very first ride, so it seemed fitting to explore new roads on our very last ride (no new tiles, but new trails).
And there is added sad news to this event, because my crash count got reset. I’m 0 for 2 on steering into a skid to prevent a slide. Jack’s slide was clean and soft, all dirt and grass. My slide was on the asphalt. Torn sleeve means it counts as a crash. ☹ But no injuries for me, so all good. Days since last crash counter was at 176. Now it’s 0.
