Things are starting to take a seasonal turn towards the not super busy (but also not super awesome) months. argh. I guess that means I'll have a bit more time for blogging, be that better or worse. I was just reading the Redstone Underground blog and saw that it didn't cover a LOT of the fun stuff we did this summer. How about some highlights?
Montana road trip was great.
Later in the summer, we rode from Eldora Ski Resort outside of Nederland to Winter Park,
had beers and lunch in WP, took a lap on the ski lift to get a downhill run in.
and then rode back to Eldora.
On the same day.
Now THAT was a good ride. I think we were good for 11 or so hours after all was said and done. When we say "long day in the saddle," that's generally the kind of ride we're looking for.
Got in a road trip to Nebraska to see some family. And some uber sweet awesome dirt tight and twisty lovin kind of singletrack.
Believe it or not, those pics were taken about 1/2 mile from where I grew up. It's 9 miles of singletrack bliss surrounded by suburbiaville. The locals say, "ah, it's ok, it's all we got." I say, "it's buttery top notch singletrack."
Oh, can't forget BMA's sufferfest. That was a killer day in the saddle, too. Big ride with lots of climbing and other fun stuff.
That ride had lots of hard climbing.
But it was worth it. What a great day.
Hmm, let see what else? Got a doggie in March, Bella the Heagle. Part Heeler, part Beagle, all awesome. And awesome trail dog, too. Bella and I got more than a few hours in. Couple of loooong ones too. She'll go longer than I will, that's for sure. Yo Bella!
That's all I got for now. I'm going to finish this beer and head to bed. Part II will be coming soon. Really!
