Today was a good day Today I woke up at 6:00 and met a friend in Castle Rock (south of Denver). We were up early to ride our mountain bikes in the Elephant Rock ride. We did the 26-mile Canyon Course, which was mostly pavement and dirt roads. It was much easier than the some of the single tracks in the foothills. I live in the foothills and it's only about 10 miles to some of the best mountain bike riding in the country - right in my backyard! It rocks. So we finished the ride in 2.5 hours, had a beer and then the storm hit. The temperature dropped about 20 degrees in 15 minutes, the rain came down in sheets, and the wind picked up to about 10-20 miles/hour. We were done, and very happy about that. A lot of people were still our riding in it. I actually know a couple of folks - it'll be interesting to see there take on it later this week.

After escaping the storm, I drove home, dropped my bike off for a tune-up (I had to bribe the guy with a 12er to get it done so I can commute this week) and played with Abbie for most of the afternoon (Mom slept after being up with her all last night - she's teething). We just got back from an hour walk, and I can her (Abbie) waking up from her nap in the other room, so I'd better go. Posted in General at Jun 01 2003, 05:02:16 PM MDT Add a Comment
