April 19, Special Ed and 2 shuttle runs each

Francine on Special Ed.
 5th day in a row riding.  The legs need a rest.  So, we planned a little 7.5 mile loop and then planned on doing some shuttling. Parked at the bottom then rode up Old Post to High School Trail, to pavement up to the Sedona High School, where Special Ed starts. It's another unofficial trail that is narrow and technical.  Had a little route finding problem.  Ended up hike-a-biking up the wrong trail.  Rode out another trail that dead ended, with cacti everywhere.   Here, Francine had a minor incident with a cactus.  One needle stuck her shoe.  Luckily it entered in solid plastic, instead of the soft mesh on the shoe.  While she was leaning down to pull it out, she acquired two more needles in the hand.  She was able to pull all three out without using the tweezers we brought.  No serious effects.  On our way down, we took another wrong turn, but made it out alive, riding around Pyramid mountain to the car.

Next we hit the shuttles.  We took turns riding Under the Radar, Under Under the Radar, Under Under Under the Radar to the car.  Then Francine rode Herkenham to Under Under Under the Radar.  Kevin rode Red Rocks Loop trail down to the pickup point.
