FU!
We had an awesome weekend in Fruita! We rode our little hearts out...I just didn't want to stop! The 29er HT worked just fine and I was able to clean much much more than I ever have and I had such an wonderful perma smile time!
We were having such an awesome time riding that we barely stopped for pictures but I got a few...

Spring seems to be here!
I wore a tank top twice this weekend!! Pretty soon it'll be flip flop and tank top weather and we'll be able to sleep with the windows open again :)
This weekend was kinda a bust, I woke up Saturday feeling kinda icky and as the day progressed it got worse. I had planned on going on a long run but my body and legs just weren't into it, I felt dizzy and light headed my entire run and I could barely feel my legs running below me.
Oh well, the rest of the weekend was spent pretty much on the couch :( BORING!!!! Thank goodness for free really cheesy ONDemand movies.
I stayed home from work on Monday because I still felt icky, took the dogs for a walk and had to stay on the couch for like 4 hours after that. Dan suggested we go on a light spin around 2pm just to get me outside because it was so nice....short light spin turned into a 2 1/2 hr ride out to Marshall and back. But after that whatever was making me feel icky was gone as fast as it came! Woot!
A little bike ride cured my cold :)

Ringing in DST with a ride!
Daylight savings time is the time of the year every cyclist dreams of after a long cold winter! It's an absolutely joyous time of the year and it already feels like spring here in Colorado. No better way to celebrate than riding up high with a minimal amount of snow. Each of us went down on ice at one point or other today but it was all good....we're riding our bikes on trails that are usually covered in snow this time of year!
Woot!

Woot!

Could it get any better
Could it get any better than riding trails on March 1st, without the warmest of clothes on and with amazingly incredible people???? I think not!
Thanks Carey and Craig for another awesome ride! So glad Chuck could make it too!

Big Wheels
Dan got the SS 29er built up yesterday and the perfect trail for testing it out was Centennial Cone. We started off Hwy 6 and rode up Mayhem Gulch to the ledges and then had to turn back around again because it was getting late. We got a late start and didn't get to the trailhead until 2pm and some guy needed his car jump started so we probably didn't get riding until around 2:30. Once we got to the ledges, it was about 4:30 so we decided to have a snack and head back to the car.
It was great, minimal people and nice dirt. I made 95% of the switchbacks and was pretty damn stoked about that! My goal this year are ledges and switchbacks...the big wheels make ledges easier and I think the geometry on the 29er make switchbacks easier than the 6.6.
