East Fork

Tim and Lazer never been on the East Fork trail and there were warm springs to be soaked in so with a little stretch of the true trail mileage it was easy convincing them. On the drive over I told them at least a 30 miler was in store for us with a dip in a natural warm spring...Sweet was the reply. In reality its a short ride but at least theres some dipping to be done at the turn around point. Lazer taking a look and finding out the real milage.

Some really pretty single track in the Jemez mountains.

Lazer and Tim B Wise on the trail.

Over looking the over look.

Nice view to adjust your head set.

I didn't take any shots of the springs cause I completly spaced it out.

School's in on Monday morning bright and early with film editing . Big change in life about to begin balancing school,work and riding. Some Band of Horses for ya ears.

Trail 813, Cumbres Pass Colorado

One of my favorite rides.

I showed Donovan one hell of a ride.

'Nuff said.

Big dnf on the BFL

I woke up on Saturday morning with the hair brained idea that I would go ride the Santa Fe Big Friggin loop. What was I thinking? NO training and riding only on weekends with the occasional week day after work ride.
It all started out pretty good. They had an option B to skip the ascent of Atalaya and hook up back on course along the Dale Ball's below it. So I took it,of course,being the out of shape dude.. I ended up in the lead ahead of everyone for the first 2 and a half hours. Then around The Borrego  intersection Jens rode by me and 20 minutes later Isaac was there,laughing at me for skipping Atalaya and taking the B option.  

Jens and Lenny leading the way with Isaac ,no handing it, giving me a shout out.Jens was the first to finish with Isaac on single speed not far behind finishing 2nd.

Last years  SFBFL champs Dominic and Brent at the start.I spy a few heavy hitters/celebraties in this photo.But, I'm one not to name drop...

Isaac had a great ride and toasted the field on his single speed.

At the Top of Ski Santa Fe , I knew I had nothing left after 5 hours in the saddle  and my back started to act up from the heavy pack .So  I  headed on home for some lunch and a beer at 2nd Street.

Always love the view from the top. I even ran into this guy , Chris ,before he carried on with the race heading down to rio en medio trail.

on the positive side it was a good training ride for the Taos Double Boundary

New Life for the Divorce`

You just gotta kick back and put things in proper perspective and order of importance.

Tom Frost ,the new kid on the block,rolling thru Rio en Medio trail.

Sporting the old school ape hangers for handlebars and a cantilever brake in the back..yeah , they still make them.

Nice riding in the 90 degree heat. Now that he is rid of his ride inhibitor,we'll be seeing more of this.

Sunday ride

South B. is riding nice ,wish it was my daily out the door ride. Hour and some drive is reasonable for the 29 miler.

Anthony ,28.5 miles before he broke his helmet and maybe a few ribs.

Robert and his balancing.We  included Jaracito trail for some change up in the same old .

Matt ,  looking at the wild flowers after crunching his balls.

First site of Taos . Have a great ride .
