espresso in the camper, surf the net, walk to the show office and pick up a two way radio. sweat my ass off all day. Its going to be 103 in the shade. fuck me
Early ride in 70F/100% humidity. Not sure where to find any additional fun today.
Unusually strong case of weekend "Meh"......... Insomnia back in full force.
Hit the dirt at 7am.
Overnight monsoon made things interesting as rock slabs were intermittently grippy or greasy. Swarms of greenheads were moderately infuriating.
Taking youngest to look at some tanks at Patton homestead then maybe sling some lead at the range. He loves banging the 6” gong at 100yards. He’s off to camp for a few weeks tomorrow.

Today we’re re-installating a fresh water system in our camper. Hopefully there’s enough time for a ride later. And then beer!
So new jurb after 1 month introduces a big change of one of the channels I'm handling. One day after i finish planing it. Then the company sends me on 1.5 weeks of work trips. Then my remote work tokens don't work. Then our team assistant goes on holiday. Then I break my toe. FML and call me Mr. Overtime
Two races and a parade
Stuffed my belly full of delicious Italian eats last night. Pushed out an equally sized poop this morning.
Going riding at a local place. Flat, short and easy with some nice awkward roots in places. Going to head over to an old dirt pump track after and see if it's any good still.
Then going swimming.

Targhee Delivers. Absolutely best dirt conditions that I have ever ridden in 20 years up here. And there is music.
The one we were recently discussing?
Edit: vert chart topping out at 10k would appear to be it.
45 road miles, 4500ft vert, high of 98 freedums.
Yes. Omg that climb. And that descent!!!
Jesus TF.....
6th, when are you up here?
I drove the Switzerland Trail with the elder two kids in the back. They enjoyed it, and no paint or tire sidewalls were sacrificed. Win all around.
Tomorrow they want to go on their (flat, easy) mountain biking trail with me, so that shall happen.

You must not suck too bad if u caught something. I'd imagine creek conditions are somewhat challenging right now, no?
PM me some details, n00B! If it's north of White Ranch there's a good chance I've never ridden it.
Closer to you than me. Incoming....
85f did oil change, airfilter cabin filter tire rotation and replaced brakes and rotors in the driveway cause my wife has so much shit in the garage you can't get a bicycle in there.
Where Taylor River drained into the reservoir. Was referred to as fish Disney World

Had some Laotian™ monsoon rain hit us mid ride. First rain ride of the year, somehow. Forgot how much fun riding trails in the rain are!
We ended up washing ourselves and the bikes off at the empty splash pad next to the little pump track park we stopped at after.

And now... hail.
Maybe week of the 22nd, otherwise it might slip to August.
Stuffed my face with pulled pork, coleslaw beef ribs and mac.n.chz... I declare this day complete. Well done, beautiful people .

Attempting to dodge it, currently surrounded up toward Evergreen with lightning bolts dropping all around.
Your view still sucks.
