My mom sat next to me in the passenger seat trying to calm my nerves, but I was still as anxious as an antelope getting chased by Lion. You ask where I was?

Edinburgh should be called the Happy Trails city once you get away out of the city there are a million of places to run, walk, hike or bike. I go mountain biking every Monday night with the club.
