Summer Evenings

Got my errands around town done for the day.

Put out a quick message to see if anyone was interested in an evening ride, with little man in tow. GSC hit me up right away, LO'L was in a few minutes later.

Now were off for a group ride.

Happy summertime

Dear Sir,

Dear Sir wearing the bright blue and pink matching kit and riding down the sidewalk on along Lake Otis Parkway,

Your leather chest holster and handgun clash with the rest of your ensemble.

Perhaps you might consider putting the gun out of sight, perhaps under your jersey or in a pocket, until you are in the woods and may actually want to have it handy should you encounter a bear.

Sincerely,

Bike wRider

Looks like a lot time spent with wet feet, but a pretty amazing trip.

Summa' Time

Not even two flats, and a granny gear headwind could put a damper on a summer afternoon ride along the inlet.

Cloudy Day Glacier Ride

A big day yesterday combined with clouds today left us a little less than ambitious. We ultimately motivated and got out for a lovely path ride through some super lush forest and some glacier viewing.





Today I also learned that even if you're lousy at windsurfing you can look cool if you do it past an iceberg.

Summer

Biermag is staying in our guest room these days. We've refused to let him pay rent, so he insisted on staying home with Little wRider so we could get out of the house. Mrs. wRider suggested we go ride the insect themed trails on the Hillside.
I've had the chance to ride these trails before, but with life, baby, winter, etc. . . she had yet to get out and explore them.
The singletrack was all built by a local mountain bike crew, specifically for bikes, and it shows.
Mrs. was not disappointed.

I can't tell you how much fun it was to get out and ride with her. We still had sunlight at 11pm, we had the trails to ourselves aside from bumping into moose twice and we kept up an impressive falsetto BECK medley to let the bears know we were out there.

Happy Summertime.

Little wRider is getting big enough to help out in the shop.
He loves to spin cranks.
