Snowed
After the relocation to a different area … um without thinking of what it would mean to be at a higher elevation, we set forth on a mission to do as many areas as we could. This area was known as Snow Canyon State Park. For most of that day, and most of the time…

Winter Crash
So I was fat biking home after work. On board inside my frame bag I had a pound of pork, a bushel of celery, a bunch of rosemary, and a half pound of butter. Kind of loaded down but on a fattie I couldn’t tell. Heading home to make squash and pork pie don’t you know.…

Mundane
Today I am thinking of the 40 hour work week. I am talking about that prison that w are all talked into and some of us are currently trapped in. And then my mind drifts on how I am going to fix that. A couple days before the first day of 2016 we planned the…

Quail Creek
I am going to go back in time. Or at least it did feel like we went back in time. Back then … about a month ago … felt like. Never mind. So some delinquent photos from a month ago when we did a after dinner walk to work off the brats and carbonated water (I like…

Contrasts
The big Christmas vacation idea was to escape the cold, go south, and find warm summer like weather. It took us two days of travel to get far enough south for it to warm above 32 degrees. It was a blinding Blizzard one moment and then it was bear ground the next. So that is…

Spyder Composites Experience
My journey with Ruby’s repair began on Thu, September 10 when I Texted Spyder Composites about my broken 2014 Salsa Beargrease. I had a trail mishap so routine that I didn’t think nothing of it. For some reason I wondered wide on a turn and went over the bars. Amazingly we discovered a crack in…

Thanksgiving
Our annual holiday dinner with the Buckeys, who we all know as mom and dad. This year we did a entirely traditional feast without using anything processed. sugar or sweeteners.

The transition
Last Wednesday we were able to get out again for a night adventure. The problem this time was that the season has dramatically changed. The week before we were just looking for places that were not muddy. But this week that decision was not available, it was winter. It was totally and definitely winter. With…

WNA #16 – The Lever
2 strong and determined to roll into darkness we set out and climbed until we could see no longer. Then we just flipped on our lights and bombed back to the parking lot. Yea, good times. We have a strong average of 2 riders per adventure and that spells success.

Interesting thing this time of year. We have more opportunities for campfires. Being old we usually are in the sack by 9. Well .. not that we are old. Just smart and know about health. We just have to say that to fit in with the night junkies. But this time of year we get…

Storm Castle Scout Trip Day 2
We woke up to snow piling up on the roof of the tent. I actually woke up Mo because I was banging the fly trying to get all the snow to slide off. Oops. That prompted emergency coffees and a morning walk to warm up. With the sun peaking out it was time to make a…

Storm Castle Scout Trip
“It’s a fabulous Saturday morning. The Sun is starting to beam in through the windows of our quonset hut. It’s time to pack the bags and head up Castle Rock”, I started off my real-time-blog post. What is that? Not important. It ended right there anyway. It happened a week ago and finally I am…
