Willow Springs (Lap 2) by lantzem at Garmin Connect

This was my second lap today, and we decided to take the new "Skip the Gasline" trail. I like the trail but it needs a couple years to be broken in properly, like most new trails do. Our lap time was only about 3 minutes slower with the new trail thrown in, which adds about 1/4 mile to your total lap distance. Overall a nice option to take if you aren't going for a course record or just want to save a bit of energy for the rest of your lap. The course is very fast this year, and a lot of the sections have been sanitized to make them less technical, which could be good or bad depending on your point of view. It should be pretty easy for my teammates and I to turn sub-1:20 laps.
