Sunday Ride

Headed west up some gravel roads... again.

After several hours the Spot got leaned here for a bit.



While I went in to the sweet old train car coffee shop in Ned.


This is a little look back with Ned below and Indian Peaks above.


I think it all fit within the meaning of 'perfection'.

Gold Hill - More dogs than people??

Did my little loop of gravel up to Gold Hill today, perfect day for it. Couldn't go past the Gold Hill general store without stopping in.

Only one plate of food today.


And this guy wanted to share more than I did.


These guys were on leases, but they thought the pie looked good too, although they were pretty happy just sniffing each others asses...


Saw a few more dogs that were too swift to catch a photo of...

The mtns have a good blanket of fresh snow, if you look at the background anyway.

There Will Be Snow

Maybe not in Boulder for a while, but up high it is on.

I left a nice sunny morning in Boulder, there was a dusting of snow in Ned, then a different world up at Eldora. 9am it was 12 degrees and blowing up at 10.5k and it stayed pretty close to that for the day.

Ride Home

Rolling home on Magnolia, Eldora back there in the distance.


See Spot roll.


Republic of Doom!


I love old mining junk at sunset.

Sunday

Another day
Another UCI cx race to superfan at...

Flea Circus out in South Boulder.


K E didn't win, but she looked fast!


J Pow putting the stomp down with his big right foot.


The national champ unleashed a great attack to bridge up to Trebon and blow past him in the last few laps, he won the race with guts and some crazy fast riding.

UCI cx Boulder Res

Did some low key superfan action on Saturday out at the Res.

A shot from the women's race. (nobody warming up during it this week, guess the real pros are pro!)


Wells, Trebon, Johnson, Powers and Baker was the show for the weekend.


T Brown put on a show of his own on his single speed.


Winston Wells was in the house, and I guess he was dressed as a ninja.


The Flatirons make a nice podium backdrop.

Gold Hill

I went for a little ride up and around on Friday. It made me hungry, like I need to eat everything right now hungry. Gold Hill general store has food, I got some and ate it up fast. Then I blasted down Sunshine Canyon back to The Republic.



And yeah, I think I used both forks...
