Mornin!
Road trip is officially over. Spent the night at my parents and will be heading down to the in-laws later to begin the process of prepping our space.
It's been a year of wonderful experiences and memories and I'm privileged to have had the opportunity.

Did you hike Katahdin?
I don't really feel like being alive today...but I'm here! Might do beers with a guy later.
Getting the little ladies' bike ready to go... coming together nicely

Still sick. Loaded up with cold meds again last night and slept. Feel like rubbish.
No. My younger brother wants to hike Katahdin too, so I told him I'd wait so we could do it together.
Another day another dollar.
huck it!Welp....
Did not have the testicular fortitude to climb the rickety fire tower.
crazy t-storms rolled through last night.
wish i had some bacon.
hrmf.

The flies up here are going to make me Jimmy dean right off the hill soon. Cant even enjoy my Switchback IPA in peace. This is why we can't have nice things etc.
The picture mellows it out a bit, but this road sucked so much to climb.
world cup in 2 weeks. we need to start planning. i intend on taking food to cook, because fuck paying resort prices.
@johnbryanpeters I manned up and "rode" to the top of Burke.
Glad I did, because DH Trail was awesome. Steep spots, rock slabs, tech roots and a brand new cut section with like half a foot of steep off camber loam. Had dirt coming over my helmet at one point.
Much broken glass to be found on the summit though.

Hand, still all fucked up. Harvesting of the apples has commenced. Guess I wouldn't be riding much now anyways.
Missed 2 days of training so I'm a bit bummed about that. Today doing some lifting to get my skinny ass in better shape. Probably some research for a self published medium article later on today. Need to do that self branding thing everybody is talking about if I want to increase job mobility in an industry which has rather little of it.
Only did one trail from the top, but I enjoyed it more than any trail on the lower half of Burke. Or any trail at Kingdom for that matter.
If you have to ride to the top, that might come into play. If you can get a ride or shuttle, most definitely.
what's the climb to the top? like 1500' vertical?
Big Mayfly hatch this morning. They were all over the deck. I wanted to grab my rod & walk down to the creek but had to take the girls down below to school.
Haven't fished in a week. :/

Love me some Burke peak runs. It's 2416' from the village to the summit, but you get the reverse on the way down. Upper J-Bar -> Lower J-Bar -> Kirby connector - > Kirby Rd (Walker Rd) -> Last Call, and pop out @ the beer.
Things on my list today:
