Nice! My kind of trail. I'm doing the Gold Dust trail in Como
(whatever and wherever that is) on Saturday. If it looks half as good
as this, I'll be happy.

Thanks.

The bird is some kind of hummingbird but I'm not enough of a bird
watcher to be able to tell you what variety.

It's a great trail and has been a longtime favorite of mine. There's
lots of nearby camping, both in developed camp sites like the one at the
trailhead and undeveloped in the surrounding forest.

If someone from elsewhere was to come and camp nearby, you could
probably do this one day and check out other (famous or obscure) stuff
another day. It's maybe 20 Miles from Crested Butte. I'd say it's
probably worth it, but what do I know?

Matt

What a great trail.

Funny how pedophilia was the first thought that popped into your
mind... when it was obvious I'm referring to masturbation.

Doctor ordered!

After spending a week working (and riding, but not enough) in Taos, it
was good to be back home again. After a full day playing with my boy I
was scheduled to have a day to ride, so I called my buddy Steve and we
made plans to meet Sunday morning for a classic ride that had just dried
out enough to be ridable without damaging it.

I got to the appointed place a little late, but Steve wasn't there. I
saw another group of friends heading out for the climb as I got ready to
ride. But where was Steve? I gave him specific instructions on where to
meet. Could he have gotten mixed up and gone to the old meeting spot? Of
course he did! So once we got that straightened out we started the 13
Mile climb spinning along and chatting.

It was a beautiful sunny day but early enough that the sun wasn't really
cooking us. We climbed and climbed. We both noted how we forget just how
long the climb is after not riding the trail for a few months. We
continued to climb until the big creek crossing.

After a cold, painful and shoeless crossing (to keep the shoes dry) we
continued climbing, but now it got steep. There's even a section that
requires use of the granny gear. Steve was riding really strong. Yeah Steve!

Finally we topped out and took a little break.

Then we headed down the trail. I love how it starts, as if you're riding
off the edge of the world.

It rolls up and down for a bit and there was some horse damage that made
it a little rough in spots as we came in and out of the trees.

Fortunately it got smoother and fast for the really fun part. The DH
just seems to go on forever, sort of like the climb.

Then we climb a little more for the final steep and rocky descent down
to the river and trailhead (and beer!).

We paused to take in the views before the last descent and got buzzed by
this little guy who seemed to be attracted to my red jersey. Then he
hung out on a branch long enough for me to snap a good portrait before
we moved on.

It was a good day and just what I needed!

How exciting....

Hmmm. I guess I get it now. Slightly less not funny then what I
originally thought but still not all that clever.

You see when I say "playing with my boy" what comes to mind is my son.
When you make a joke that I (correctly) suspect has sexual connotations,
and he's part of what I was talking about, is it that much of a stretch
to think it was some kind of pedophile reference?

Anyway, whatever. "Ha ha" I guess.

Matt,

He's obviously someone who does not have children aside from having very
strange thoughts. I knew exactly what you meant. Is he still doing
those tumbles on his head? When is he hitting the trails?

No biggie. I've had a joke or two fall flat. I don't think it was malicious.

He learned not to land on his head pretty quickly. That phase lasted
maybe a couple of days.
And trails? Check it out:

Hurry up and have that second kid, I have a tandem trailer bike I'll damn
near give away, comes with baby seat as well as a second regular seat. I
think it's a six speed rear derailleur (who thought up the spelling on that

Speaking of tandems Gary., Couldn't you see Matt and Mrs. B riping it
up (on or off road) on a tandem? Damn, they'd be scary fast :-)

We've thought about it but I like to be able to steer and she likes to
have her face somewhere other than right behind my ass (can't blame her
for that).
Those are irreconcilable differences when it comes to tandem riding!
Luckily the boy doesn't know any better (yet). When he does it will be
good incentive to ride his own bike!
