If there is one upside to not catching any fish while "fishing" it's that you have an overabundance of time to think. While thinking this morning (read: casting, not catching), I came up with a slightly crazy idea. I'm not going to elaborate on it a whole lot. It is a bike ride/race that will be unsanctioned and unsupported. It involves gravel. It involves trails. It involves roads. It will take place in the cooler months, and it involves these:
I've still got some formulating to do, but the ride will best be done on either a cross bike, or a 29er with some cross tires. The route I have chosen will be between 60 and 75 miles.
Some photos along the proposed route.

E, I know not of what you speak....
Help you I must, yes.... (think Yoda)
The route I've got now is about 12-14 miles of single/doubletrack, 6-8 miles of gravel, one cool surprise (if it works out), and the rest pavement.
We'll have to start doing some stealth scouting soon, Brad.
