Huntington beat down

Wanting somewhere not too far away but something different, I headed for Huntington park in Redding. A classic for me when right before I moved to Utah I would frequent with my kona dawg. I made my way around the park and forgot how rocky the place is and for the last time will never ride chimney trail again. Got lost a bunch but enjoyed the ride!

Case of bliss

Oh my goodness, Case was absolutely magical, fog, dampness and so many trails. Hope to call this place home again one day soon. Again got lost in the web but put together a great ride. Could spend all day riding there but got to get back to family time.

CT! New England Brown Chowder

Got in a visit to see my parents, with that comes good old New England! I got in on the red eye and hungout a bit before I snuck in a little ride. The trails were absolute money from some rain, the sky was overcast and I was in heaven! Rode right from the house which is a nice benefeit. Rosevelt is small but packs an easy punch wihtout a commute.

A ride

Nothing more to say....

Mogollon Magic

Woke up at 2am, didn't wan to but did, waited for 3am and then off I went for Payson! Driving up I was surpried with a few flashes on ligthning, and sprinkles of rain. radar showed a few bands of light and heavy rain. Hoping it wasn't too heavy since the Rim goes to heck real quick with wet clay making riding impossible. When I got riding it was still dark, trail was damp and I was really really enjoying how vegatated it was. I started in See Canyon and went east. I hit a few slick spots and clay began to stick, luckily it was spotty and was able to make my climbs and it dried up as I went. When Light came in I was greeted by beeautiful old growth Pine forest. It was truly magicla out there, once the clibming was done, the trail was quite smooth and mellow which was a surprise. Once I reached my turnaround point it was a fun jaunt back to See canyon. First half was done now for the west side, the sun poked through and offered up a majestic view of the rim it was glorious. The next 5 miles were decent, a few nice spots, but nothing compared to the other side. Great ride!

Filthy air, filthy man

Look at that sky, sketch
