Is that a bottle of coke flavored maple syrup?
Another road ride, this time on the road bike. Moderate effort, mostly flat with 550 feet of gain in 21.5 miles. Average moving speed 12.5 MPH. Almost no wind, river smooth as glass.
Damn skinny sticks - reminds me of riding trails on Weyerhaeuser land - jealous worthy trails.
Seems to be missing the other 50 people you'd have on the trails in shot around here...
Thursday was going to my long slow ride but the weather forecast says 25MPH winds. Today 8MPH winds and scattered showers. I chose wet over wind. 20 miles easy effort and a little under 700 feet of gain. 10.2 moving speed on the hard tail. Last 8 miles in steady rain so now the bike is clean.
Some spots are busier than others, but I was also out late/early. That helps.
I think most of Seymour was logged a few decades ago. There are still some monsters around here and there.

Pissing rain all freakin day, so All-Country bikes won't be a thing for a minute, so here's a video of a tired bumble bee I gifted some agave to. Didn't take long for the diabetus juice to work its magic and send him/her on their way.
If it had of been a murder hornet on the other hand, its WD40 and lighter time.

Another long slow base mile ride. 29 miles, 10.5 average speed, 119 average heart rate. Another 10 days to go but I might let loose Friday to see if the last 3 weeks made any difference.
There has been a lot of rain in central Montana, first time I have ever seen all the gates open.

great ride with my oldest son yesterday. it was our first "real" ride together (i.e. on trails that I would normally ride). He rocked it. I'm contemplating new tires, new shoes, and possibly a suspension fork for him now... 
the trilliums sure were purdy in places:

on an empty day, Buff Creek can be a magic place.
I was surprised. Parking lot at scraggy and the CoMBA lot were weekend full, but I only saw maybe 10 people all day on the trails all day.
Good to know, might head there on Friday and ride the big loop. We'd normally park at the Buff Creek lot and start by climbing Nice Kitty...
That's what I did. Conditions were good. Windy as shit yesterday though. Rode Nice Kitty and a section of CT twice yesterday, both had snags fall across the trail between my two trips.
Is this near pikes peak?
I was there in 2010 rode some really really long trail down it was spectacular
The big mountain in the background is Mt Evans, NE of him, PP is SSE of there.
Buff Creek: "Big Burrito" Mountain Bike Trail, Pine, Colorado
This ride captures 3 big climbs and 3 big downhills—a "choice selection" of some the best Buffalo Creek has to offer! Near Pine, Colorado.

Wheres that at?
The Pines just outside of Woodstock.
Built on leased land from the Upper Thames River Conservation Authority. It was a dirt-roadie paradise for years, but it got logged earlier this spring. So the current trail builders decided to change things up. They are placing hubs at the high-points each with several downhill trails, all linked up with transfers and return climbing routes. The trails are all super short, basically like sessioning a section of normal trail. Trying to eek out the most fun and progression with the maybe 75 feet of elevation.
