| Pretty typical climb.This is about a ~15% grade at times and about 1.5 miles long |

| Looking down a descent (all told this is a 12 mile drop from 9000ft down to 5500ft) with Green and Bear in the background. Tons of super tight switchbacks and 50mph straights. A shot of adrenaline is a hell of a way to wake up in the morning. |
Really like this batch of pictures. Awesome.
ReplyDeleteMakes me feel lazy since you've already done this and I'm sipping coffee at 9 AM.
Well, off to the mountains ;)
Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI'm usually having my first cup of joe by 3:15am... this morning I did a headlamp run and was finished by 5:00. Insomnia sucks.
"looking down at my hood"
ReplyDeleteI assume you mean neighborhood and not tallywacker. Because the latter is not a safe way to ride a bike.
Ha! I can't help it... tight lycra is flattering.
ReplyDeleteYellow jersey, eh? Not polka dotted?
ReplyDeleteCreepy header photo. Creepy in a cool way.
That was nutty ... you not moving your legs but being drug behind a baby jogger as it went down the hill.
No children were harmed in the filming of that by the way.
Scattante frame?
ReplyDeleteGreat pic's....keep 'em coming....what kind of camera are you using....? BTW, it looks to me like your shifter/brake lever pods are slanted down at too great of an angle to the horizontal....are they comfortable for you and your wrists....?
ReplyDeleteGZ- I'm far from king. Ya, I love the header pic. When the wolves were still down the street I would walk up to the fence and see that exact same shot.
ReplyDeleteJeff- Yes. I am seriously considering selling the Merlin and trying to find a used Moots Psychlo X... I like the Scat because it's cheap but I hate aluminum. It'll do for now though.
Art- Thanks!
I use a Canon Power Shot SD1300 IS Digital Elph. Affordable and it takes awesome pics.
Are you suggesting I would ride something that isn't comfortable!? ;)I think it's the angle of the shot, they're perfect. Although I hate the triggers, I'm a grip shift guy but they're on my 29er.
