Today we went for haircuts in Lake Zurich (only $9 for “seniors” 62 or over!) so we took our bikes and ventured into Deer Grove Woods again, completing the mountain bike loops in both Deer Grove and Deer Grove East. Ellen calls this preserve “deer-less grove” because she never sees deer here, but today a spotted fawn was just off the trail browsing. He sped into the underbrush, so I stopped and looked more closely into the foliage and spotted mom (photo below) and her two fawns. I only had my iPhone, so the photos in this post aren’t the best…
Here’s Ellen with a huge smile as we negotiate one of the two singletrack sections. Most of the 12 miles are graveled and wide, so we relish the segments that are more “mountain biking-like.”
