Saturday was Toby's day. Met up with Ryan and we ended up heading to Station flats. Rode up Ridge back and since it was in perfect shape we decided to keep going to make it a loop, so up Moose Packer. It seemed very promising as we completed most of the switch backs but as it flattend out and we hit the next section snow appeared and then more and more and deeper!! But at this point we figured we might as well make it to the top. It wasn't with out a lot of snow crawling, even went backwards up on last section of Pnuma to avoide the snowy double track. With that we also had to go down Pnuma a bit, to the utility house and from there we hit the road to Race of Spades. It was much better, finally back on the bikes again, with frozen skins and feet! But RoS didn't disappoint so all worth it in the end. Toby got his first real workout, a bit to go to peak performance, but at least he slept through the night for once :)
Today it was a girls ride. It's been a long time since we've got out to ride. It was great. Headed out to Minnewanka. Thought we left pretty early but as we arrived it was already quiet busy, but not too bad on the trail going out. I forgot how much I enjoy this ride. Since my fully had a shifter break yesterday I was back on the Ht and on this trail it is the perfect match. So flowy and fun. Turned back at the cabin, and on the way back the trail was getting really busy! Conteplated a second ride in Banff but settled for good coffee and snack :)
Dropped the fully off at Ridleys after a shifter mail function and got some good news! Looking forward to the long winter raining rides on what will be the little sister of Cronos :) Hopefully bring home Boone this week sometime.
Happy Riding!
This was while it still looked promising :)
Great riding with Alana and Trish!
If you look really close you see the rear end of the mountain sheep!
Rear end if Alana and Trish...
