Almost forgotten how.....
It's been a while: a while since I've been home at night, a while since blogging, a while since we rode our single bikes.
Due to Billy Blythe (the opera in Little Rock, AR) and other mayhem it has been over 20 days since I've ridden one of our bikes. I really can't remember the last time I rode my Chumba. Heather has only been out about once on her Blur since breaking her finger late in the Summer. Yesterday we fixed that. We loaded up the bikes and the Dog and went to Loma. While we ride this area frequently, we are usually on tandem and there are some trails that we don't do because of the lack of tandem fun involved. Most notably is a trail called "Moore Fun" which is very technical and full of large rocks that would render the ride incredibly un-fun on a tandem.
Here is our standard load up for the quick run to Loma: note the critical dog-transport-unit in the back. Temperature was about 35-40 degrees and sunny, which was nice since it has been hovering at or below freezing for a week.
Then cut across to Steve's Loop - a nice canyon edge trail with great views.
Finally over to Moore Fun. After about 1.5 miles of hike-a-bike nonsense followed by lots of climbing, we started down!
Still some white stuff on the North-facing sections.
And lots and lots of rocks.
A very good day followed by plenty of pizza.

No pizza pics?
Those are really nice pictures of some really nice scenery. One wouldn't want to take a wrong turn while rolling along those canyon edges.
Envious, I am. There's nothing like that here in southern Michigan, excepting the white stuff.
