Enjoying some ridge

Off to Gold Canyon with Quartz Ridge on my mind. I have only ridden it twice I think and it didn't flow great back then. I rolled into the spot that allowed me to get onto Cow Pie trail from the begining, it connected a few dirt roads and I followed the bike tires until it hit singletrack, nice little new perk. I rode Cow Pie and then onto Quartz which I have never ridden in this direction. A few tricky spots to walk but once I got up high it was smooth sailing and spectacular views. I dropped down Owls Nest and filled in the blanks with some great miles.

All the great things

I rode the ridges and the headed for the river. I wanted to ride in a different direction what I rode the week before, it was a good success, didn't manage to clear two climbs though, super duper loose for me. Clouds were in and I even ran into two horses and a mineshaft.

Double Ridge!

Combo'd the ridge and goat, nice combo and nice relaxing spin right after, bring on the weekend!

Gold Canyon discovery

I wanted to mix up my beloved Gold Canyon, I noticed a trail named Cow Pies and tried it ou, turneed out to be a great trail. Really put a different perspective on the area, I need to get back on Quartz Ridge. Rest of the ride was a delight, love me Gold Canyon!

Double Ridge

The plan was to combo High Rdige and Iron Goat but the builder was up there making a re route so I ran the ridge 2x and then filled in some much easier miles.

Oh hello spring

Man it's warm, teh trails are great!

Iron Goat

I patiently waited for Iron goats completion, and it was ready for me Monday. I must say it is quite good, I think I favor High Ridge but man great stuff or Hawes! Still not a fan of the climbing trail to get to them but I can live with it :)
