December ...

... rides; and a longer stint up north.

First weekend of December was a cooler one a couple of us managed to bundle up and get a couple rides in. First Saturday Thomas and I did the Fish Creek loop and with similar weather on the Sunday Cesar, Ryan and I ended up doing the same loop. It starts out with single track right from the start in Bowness and with some more around Glenmore and off course Fish Creek. Great ride all within city limits.

Then it was off to the north for almost two weeks with return for a couple of great rides this weekend. Great turnout on Saturday but a little chilly (-15start) so a few kept it short. Road up Tuscany ravine and after such great condition we agreed on a city single track day. Included Stoney, Bowmont, Edworthy with a stop as Rosso; and back through Edworthy and Bowmont. So awsome!
Sunday it warmed up so Cochrane seemded like a Grwat choice. Craig, Erik and Cindy joined and we got to enjoy the Bearspaw lake crossing and riding a little bit of skating rink. The path through the park was in great shape and the coffee stop as good as it alwAys is. The return trip included a tail wind so strong we barley had to pedal up the hills! So fun! End this new classic loop with some tacky single track back into the city.

So lucky to go through weekends of all sorts of winter weather and always have a riding buddy; makes riding what it is suppose to be....

Happy Riding!
