who'da thunk it?

pueblo. pueblo? pueblo!

january 5th, leaving icy streets behind, 2 hours (give or take) south and a little oasis (or "little fruita", as tagged by some). felt good to be on the tracer again, riding dry dirt. basically a trail system built around some mini canyons (ravines? gullys?). ride the ridge, drop in, climb out; ride some more, drop in, climb out. some fun techy stuff, including a ladder here & there, some drops, and sections of loose shale. kinda cool plowing through that stuff and having it sound like broken glass all around you. the area reminded me quite a bit of the independence (jeep) trails down in penrose.


still can't believe i was wearing shorts and short-sleeves today. sweetness. ;-)



distance 9.20 • time 1:20 • average 6.8
(now playing: TOOL)
