North Travis Country Trail
http://www.ramsays.us/ramsays2/trails/20050415/index.html
I put in off of Sendora in Travis Country Trail. I took the north trail and had a lot of fun. I made some up-hill climbs I hadn't the week before, was braver on some downhills but still walked a lot through many sections.
I continued downstream on the west side of the Barton Spring Creek, crossed at Rock falls and...ANSWERED A CALL FROM MY CELL PHONE. I was going down-hill. My 7 year-old son I sure heard me as I went over the handlebars. He has now a couple of new words in his vocabulary.
It reminded me of a ski instructor once telling me to leave the cell phone behind when skiing. The distraction is just enough to throw you and cause possible injury. He said he's seen many occasions of people doing this...I just did. ...how stupid.
Because I usually ride alone, I'll continue to take my phone (when in range) but have learned my lesson. I'll pull over before I answer.
