One Reflection on a Glorious Day!

One Reflection on a Glorious Day…

           August 2012 – Meet at the Pedal House @ 7:30 a.m. on a Sunday.    It's a little brisk…Laramie in August is amazing. We drive west on WY Highway 130 towards the Snowy Range. 
 

 
 
 
Everyone gathers at the North Fork trailhead.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Ed rolls to a stop in his white four door sedan, removes two mountain bikes from the trunk and exclaims, “Dude, I told you I was going to be there in 15 minutes! I showed up 1/2 hour later and everyone was gone." It's going to be a fun day.
 
Bikes out of trucks and trunks.
 
 
 
Little last minute checks on gear…tire pressure Ok? Brakes Ok?
 
 
 
 
 
 
           
 
 
 
 
 
 They humor me so I can get a group shot…
Preparing for the big moment.
 
 
and they are off.
 
 
Riding mountain bikes, in the mountains? I've done it. I'll do it again but... I'm a city commuter…a part time city commuter who loves to hike and take pictures. Thus, I sprinted ahead to find a great spot to take shots.  
 
 
 
 
Big Air…
 

 
 
 

Big Smiles…
 
 
 
 
 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Fast Corners…

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 






 
And Big Rewards…I forgot to take a picture of the pizza and beer, but it was definitely on the menu from The Beartree Tavern and Cafe 

I look forward to documenting another group ride in the summer of 2013, enjoying time with my dogs, friends, husband, a cold beer and cheese pizza. In the meantime, I plan to head to Curt Gowdy State Park in the early morning to enjoy a snow free hike on March 8. I LOVE Wyoming!
 
Hiking on snow free trails in
January, February and March in southeast WY?
Perhaps there are some benefits to global warming?
Kidding…kidding. I know, “We NEED the moisture.”

  2. Although the monks acknowledge the effectiveness of medications
    in the treatment of how to clean toxins out of
    your bodyification, many of us are not alarmed.
