We don’t always get along but this bike is a beast. It climbs like a goat, descents like the devil and wanders like a drunk.
My first interaction with the Ripmo was not awesome but we’re learning to get along.
Latest ventures with the Ibis Ripmo
- It’s getting brisk
Not as cold but still cold. I was hesitant to wear cold weather gear worrying that it would it be hot. I did not regret the extra gear. Winter is coming. The ride – Providence Canyon, Utah The bike – Ripmo - Oh deer it’s cold
First ride that I resorted to full on cold weather gear. Still froze my fingers and toes. The ride – Providence Canyon, Utah The bike – Ripmo - The perfect Fall day
There aren’t many days with perfect weather, great trail conditions and beautiful surroundings. Today was as good as it gets. The ride – Providence Canyon, Utah The bike – Ripmo - Turkeys are ugly
We’re headed out of town for my boy’s Fall break. I had to get in one more ride up Providence Canyon during the perfect weather. I rarely see wildlife in the canyon. Instead, I see it in town while riding to the canyon. Today a group of wild turkeys reminded me that turkeys are really ugly. The ride – Providence Canyon, Utah The bike – - Green is good
Most of the leafs are on the ground now which makes for a colorful, crunchy carpet. Green was a great time today. The ride – Green Canyon, Utah The bike – Ripmo - Birch, it’s been a while
Birch is not close to my house and so I almost never ride it. I felt the need to tackle it at least one time this season and today being a Friday and my legs still being week it was the perfect opportunity. It’s not a hard or especially technical ride. I clocked 5 miles top to bottom. Nothing was so strenuous that I couldn’t - Climbing penance for all MTB sins
I really like Millville Canyon. It is a hard, relentless climb. It’s a killer but it also means you pretty much have the place to yourself. The views are spectacular – especially this time of year. My legs will be complaining for a few days but what a feast for the eyes! The ride – Providence Canyon, Utah The bike – Ripmo - And then the trees where like it’s time to leaf
It’s magic carpet season. Enjoy the crispy, crunchy trail rides while you can. The ride – Providence Canyon, Utah The bike – Ripmo - Fall with family
We burned up the last rays of daylight on the River trail enjoying the waning colors and perfect Fall weather. The ride – Jardine Juniper Trail The bike – Ripmo - Green family
Everyone made it all the way to the top of Green Canyon. The ride – Green Canyon The bike – Ripmo - All of us together
Bren took over Callie’s bike so I got her another one. This is the first time we’ve all been out together in a while. The ride – Jardine Juniper Trail The bike – Ripmo - Two roads diverged
Nice, easy slow up and down. Taking in the last bits of Autumn. The ride – Green Canyon, Utah The bike – Ripmo
