Canyonrat(jerry) and myself hit waterton>ct>to south platte>and back
He shows up on yet another new frame sheesh! I flatted after a creek crossing and a slow 15 min. change, one broken crank bros. multi tool, spectacular trail conditions with that smell of spring but also the smell of a dry forest combining. What is up with the riding up on the ct to lennys with either no helmet or it strapped to the pack?? We were also passed by an older couple on a tandem on the road while we spun out our singlegear bikes!
5hr. ride 35miles with 4260' of climbing
No riding shots, too much fun. Well the climb back up from the river was not much fun, I will climb that without stopping some day! Still earned a couple of these though!
Then it was off to see the second game of the day, ended up 4-0 for the tournament, was only a scrimmage tournament though. Off to play in AZ with the big boys next week end.
This was day one of riding with day two planned for Friday, the more i rode the worse my rear hub got! Thought it was going to survive a couple more rides but not this time, didn't want to be stuck out in the desert pushing my bike in the heat!
Shot taken on the way down! Remainder of trip was spent watching Cody's team play against kids who play year round! Was some good down time and family time as well! Riding will be there, drove back through moab and hit a nasty wind and dust storm, then blowing snow with zero visibility! Snow quit just 2 miles south of moab, met up with andy chrysler in moab and met his family. Time to get back to work....ugh! Family decided we want to get back to moab within a few weeks for some hiking and some riding, this time take moots with us!
