Summer 2014

Summer has been fun!

Long rides with great views.


Long gravel runs around the Bear Creek.

 Bears sighted often

 Friends getting super tattoos



A lovely stay at Mulberry Gap cabins, with a nice visit with the ladies there.

 Camping and riding with my boys.
 Stanley Gap area
 Tanasi trails area
 Single track with my guys
 Camping around Tanasi
 Not quite there yet
 Oooh, I LOVE fire!

 The boys made fun of my Kris Kross music in the car.....so I made a couple fliers and sent them out to all our friends.




Walking and riding the path at the Monastery 

Ah, and a little work was done, too

Scouting Shey's Birthday Ride


It was to be a very rainy day, so I suggested we scout out the remaining bit of Shey's 150+ mile gravel route for his birthday ride.


Good coffee is a must while scouting out any monster gravel route.


Checking the gps and driving slow to map the route.


I had a blast sliding around the muddy corners in the subie, but Shey wasn't laughing....

 We didn't go here.....
 There was lots of rain.....I made a friend.
 More gravel
 Smokey is found along the gravel route
 Right next to the tower from Firewater 50
 Shey scouting out a path


His August birthday ride was great and he had a cool group of guys ride the route with him.
