4 rides

[Anthony Sloan]

Just got back from a business trip out west. I drove from Austin to San Francisco and back. I
temporarily hired two of my riding buddies to help out with the event and we hit the road.

The first ride was South Mountain in Phoenix:
http://www.anthonysloan.com/South_Mountain,_Feb_2003.html

Then Montana de Oro: http://www.anthonysloan.com/San_Luis_Obispo,_Feb__2003.html

Then Soquel Demo Forest outside of Santa Cruz:
http://www.anthonysloan.com/Soquel_Demo_Forest,_Feb__2003.html

And finally Sedona: http://www.anthonysloan.com/Sedona,_Feb_2003.html

There is some great riding out there. These were four fundamentally different rides. I honestly
couldn't say which one was the "best".

Great pics! Its been awhile since I've done much business traveling, but I always enjoyed getting in
a ride as part of the trip. Makes the whole trip worthwhile. A change of landscape in and of itself
makes a world of difference.

Great stuff, Anthony.

Sedona looks incredible (I've been there once but it was before I started riding). We're doing the
"24 Hours of Tortuous Tucson" this weekend, but will be too wasted and pressed for time to add any
excursions

Nice, Bill

The mind serves properly as a window glass rather than as a reflector, that is, the mind should give
an immediate view instead of an interpretation of the world.

Thank you.

I think that's one of the nicest compliment's I've ever been paid.

I try to hold the torch high.

Though some may hoot with derision, even a jeep road can be cool if you've never seen it before.
Travel is the best.

Thankee,

Sedona was quite nice. Well worth hitting. Good luck in the race. I almost got together a SS team to
do that one.

Is that what you meant? - Couldn't get it from your link - missing part or summink. Trail looks like
an excellent piece of s/t - hardly surprising yer always up for a ride eh?
