Going to ride a trail to see a tree
Don’t get me wrong. I love this tree. I really love the trail that leads up to it. I love the cool mountain mornings that provide the perfect atmosphere for the ride. Juniper Jardine is a great way to get high. The ride – Jardine Juniper Trail The bike – Ripmo
Bovine bulldozers are back
My least favorite time of the year for Providence Canyon. Everything is beautiful and lovely up until the day they bring in the cows at which point all vegetation is destroyed. the creek bed is demolished and the trail becomes unavoidably covered in manure. The ride – Providence Canyon, Utah The bike – Ripmo
Paradise, Powerplant, Providence
Covering all the Ps this morning. I’m a wimp when it comes to the cold lately and was worried about freezing. Turns out it was a perfect temperature. I need to learn that Apple Weather is filled with lies. When the sun is out it is plenty warm even if my phone tells me the temperature is in the 50s. I ran into an invisible
Splash Mountain
The water was back in the dry creek beds again today. I and the Ripmo returned home wet and muddy. The snow must still be melting up high. I’ve adjusted my ride a bit to avoid the section of trail that has become a waterfall. Strava doesn’t show it but this was one of my fastest overall all times from leaving my house to returning
Did hell freeze over? June should be warm.
Another cold day this week. The afternoon temperature was pretty pleasant for a ride. I would not be found swimming just yet. Logan Canyon remains one of the most beautiful places I have had the pleasure of visiting. The ride – Logan River Trail The bike – Bianchi Cavaria
Southern Cache Valley Wandering
The thermometer dropped from the 80s to the 60s this week so the mornings are cool. I put in a few miles before the sun starts cooking us again. The ride – Paradise and some other climbs The bike – Time VRS Fluidity
Satan’s flies live here
Woke up early (for me) determined to make the climb up Millville Canyon. My goal was to turn around before the really steep bit but when I reached that bit my soul felt drawn to new elevations and the Ripmo and I continued climbing. During rides past, at my usual turn around spot I had observed a new trail. Today I determined to explore it.
Fully Baked
Summer has started in Utah and the hills are as blazing hot as Satan’s bedroom. The cool mornings are the perfect time to ride. By the time noon rolls around the sun has had sufficient time to turn everything into a blast furnace. I had a great time testing out my hydration limits today. The ride – Providence The bike – Ibis Ripmo
Logan Canyon is a Magical Place
My rides take longer because I keep stopping to take pictures. The wildflowers are in bloom and the river is running high. The ride – Zwift The bike – Trek Madone 6.9
