Bikes
Rode this last Thursday, decided it was time to get the pictures off the camera and up into the internets..
Started with a bunch of climbing up loose switchbacks. I made a bunch of them, but some were pretty much impossible. Maybe sometime when it rains a bit to firm them up..

Stopped at a nice vista for a quick snack

After that the trail arrives at a parking lot, so I took a break and had some lunch... Then I saw this as I was about to get back into the woods.

Hmmm... Not the best time to be in the woods alone. I spent the quiet climbing formulating a plan for when the kitty decides it wants to play. It never showed up, so I took another break at the highest point of the ride.

Then it was a ridiculously fast and cool descent on a trail shared by motorcycles. as much as I think it's lame to use a motor out here, they sure make the trail nice.
