Now that ^^^ looks like good riding. Not into the UV oven stuff, though the views are nice.
Ping me here a few days in advance and we can roll some old school trail.Quote:

Good riding so far this week. I switched up our usual "wednesday worlds" road ride last night and we went and did some dirt. Good times were had by all, except for the guy who didn't get the memo, brought his road bike, and flatted immediately.
Tonight was the mtb ride, we went out to an area I haven't really ridden that much, found some fun trail way out where you wouldn't expect anything, looks like it gets some moto and atv traffic and that is probably where it came from. Kind of thought we were going to spend the whole ride on logging roads. Did get a puncture on my pre-ride to the meetup spot which was annoying, now I'm going to have to try to get that patched up because it's pretty new and expensive tire.
Smoke wasn't too bad

Trail down was faint in some places, in others it was chewed up atv doubletrack:

Well he ended up winning within a couple of years and went on to ride the TDF with Schwinn-Wheaties for several years.
I lost track of him and hadn't seen him in years and I ran into him skiing a couple of years ago. I was stoked, because I ride more than ever and asked about riding.
"You know, I haven't ridden a bike in seven years. It became a job."
That was a good lesson for me and I'm so glad that I haven't lost the passion.

Something to look forward to (more weight in the trailer, not on me) as the years tick by. The .7 12-15% grade up the local bump and the 5 miles mostly up hill to get to the base from the driveway never disappoints even without her in tow. Daddy daycare roolz.Quote:

Congrats on the successful up n ovah👍
that pic reminds me, years ago I was delivering furniture (my crap job at the time) and we saw a classic brown NF sign that gave various distances to certain locations, and one of them was "Nipple Mountain". My coworker and I both said "huh, I wonder which one is Nipple Mountain?' Looked up, and said "Oh, yeah, I get it".Quote:
