First blog ever being published here today. We'll see where this takes me or how often I publish. Pictures will soon follow I'd imagine. This is more or less a forum for my passion of ridin' my mountain bike and where that takes me physically and mentally.
It's summer and I've been ridin' a lot. Starting to get hot but not up high where I live and play. Rode both days this weekend. Saturday by myself on the trails behind the house which can make for a good two hours of ridin'. I like to ride a lone at times, it's good to be with just me.
Sunday was group ride day, me and the boys, ridin' hard. Though we got a late start which made me a bit antzy and we didn't ride as long as I could have, it was still gud. Rode up high, starting from Brainard Lake area down the North St. Vrain/Wapiti to Camp Dick, mostly downhill and ripping at that with a lot of rocks, technical stuff, keeps you on your toes and feet. I have 5.5" of travel on my LT but I wish I had more yesterday.
Started up the jeep road toward the wilderness area but ran into a lot of flooding about one mile up or so. Deep water in the road, getting wet was certain. The objective was to come down the 4 miles of trail along the stream on the other side of the road but some of the boyz I was ridin' with didn't want to continue on for various reasons. It was getting late and I was disappointed in their lack of desire to continue on but it was all gud. Another day. It was just sweet to be out ridin' and jumping and workin' it.
Today no ridin', day off, take my Root dog to vet for surgery and deal with other things, studio time, etc..
Ridin' will continue tomorrow.
