Ride 1...

...September long weekend.

After a very long and slow week with no attempts of riding i was looking forward to a long weekend of riding. I started out with a quick warm up ride with Toby last night. We almost made it to the car before hail and thunder but not quiet, ouch and ouch and by the time we got down we were both wet and cold...

Today i started out with a regular "traditional" at Cadence and with Alana, Michelle, Andrew and Mani show ul as well it was to be a great day.
Cool morning so dressing up has to be re-learned. You'd think we would know by now.....i left knee warmers but glad o brought west and arms...
We road to MooseMtn rd, climbed up pnuma to the top, down pnuma were i had my slow motion wipe out on the rocks trying to balance my bike to avoid big dog and then realizing support was required and leaning on to the nearest tree rather than stepping out of pedals seemed like a good option until i learned that tree did not wanna support me....down i went...
Now down at start of Moosepackers, thouh we turned right, climbed back up and eventually on to Shaft, still fun but a bit wet from the last rain and hail and snow... On to elbow something, up sulphur and back to truck!... Oh i love fall riding! Blue, sunny sky, great trails, and refreshing air!

Now at vet with my bud Toby. Second time with infected jaw, poor guy...think tooth will have to go and no more bones!...but as always he's a trooper!

Happy fall riding!
