Recent wind storm seems to have done its work on this trail. Note the hanging tree of doom.

I took after one of those today, a white pine top lodged high between two trunks, with my Katana. When it finally let loose, the trunk swung instantly like a one ton baseball bat, away from me.

My first ride in two months felt wonderful!

I played the 'find the trail' game today, in some places only local knowledge helped. Wet leaves and roots made it interesting.
Lesson of the day: horse poo is indistinguishable from leaves.
Question of the day: WTF are horses doing on these hiking/biking trails?

Happy to report that my new fancy stay silencer makes the bike completely silent.
Inspired by lizard skin, made from liquid dinosaurs.

nice day in the hills. low 50s and sunny. new to me trails. took me a bit to acclimate to full leaf surf mode, but it was $$$ once i did.
11/10 would bang again.

wasn't a super long ride but the downs were a hoot

So, in the spring and Fall, Grand Teton Park and Yellowstone close to cars. It is pretty magical when the weather cooperates.

I try to go every year.

For how long is it closed? Must be awesome.

All of April, and from Nov. 1st until there is snow. For some reason, they do not allow any wheeled travel when there is snow on the ground, so no fat bikes. Which would be incredible.

Can you XC ski there in Winter?

XC skiing >>> efatbikes

 

[rideit]

Absolutely...but I would way rather be pedaling, my knees scream at XC skiing, whereas cycling doesn’t hurt at all.

Just read there are 99 fires burning in the state I live in, luckily none near me.
Most of this got burned a few years ago and it took a long time to recover due to a lack of follow up rain.

Not the ride itself but something cool on the way to the trails

That reminds me I have to edit my Darrington video footage...

Triggered

Leaf surfing is fun.
Leaf raking isn't.

Do you still ride the shoulder or go in the middle?

Same old sign...

Got a little video edited from Darrington

 

[Da Peach]

Back for more today. Bonkers.

I ride the white line, maaaaan

 

[canadmos]

I ride the white line, maaaaan

Whattttt, I'd be taking advantage and riding the center.

Still remember way back when during the huge power outage around 2000 and Toronto pretty much shutting down. Rode my bike up and down the middle of Yonge Street in what looked like a zombie apocalypse.

 

[maxyedor]

I miss summer already

 

[scrublover]

More slippy leafy fun. Hand rehab and making things work.

Silky Saws rock. And my newest big boy just arrived today!

 

[jackalope]

Damn, all the Fall riding pics are wonderous leaf queefs. But since my leg still sucks, it's water sports for me

 

[pizza diavola]

Trying to stay off the brakes for this corner did not work as intended given the fine layer of pine needles

Crazy good frozen dirty today. Like velcro. A few boards still frosty, but this is that 2nd-summer time when the trails are just as good as mid-summer due to being frozen hard. Just gotta dress for it, upper 20Fs.

Not Denali, but volcanoes...

 

[manhattanprjkt83]

One of me looking like a blowfish this weekend on some of our more technical trails.

 

[slyfink]

and one from my commute this morning:

 

[manhattanprjkt83]
