Went to Addison with Kevin and Mike:




If I wasn't so tired I'd figure out how to merge these 2 pictures together.

Kitt Peak/Gates Pass


After climbing Kitt and flatting on the way down, Terry and I decided to do a quick ride up Gates Pass. It's short, but it's a heck of a 10 minute effort.

Here's a picture taken last year of the final ascent.

Mount Lemmon


If you look close you can see me in this picture.

Here is a dot race of my last 3 climbs of Mt. Lemmon.

Terry and I attended the Nova National MTB Race. That's Geoff Kabush in front. He eventually won the race.

I think I want to go here

Click for an interesting article on Mt. Lemmon where Terry and I will be riding in less than 10 days. Mt. Lemmon is one of the best places on earth to ride a road bike. This picture, by the way, was taken by me last year.

This is Sunday's ride. Did the Rollercoaster at Stony.

The trail was in pretty good shape. There were a few mud spots on the 2 track, but the Rollercoaster was fine.

I did the ride on my Specialized hardtail which feels like it is made out of solid glass on singletrack. Can't wait for Continental to finish the suspension work on my AS-R! With almost 4 inches of rear travel, every line is a smooth line.

I started using routeslip to track some of my rides; especially the ones where I don't take a GPS. It's amazing what you can remember when you retrace your steps!

Here is Sunday's ride.

Skiing is better than cycling. Here's some proof:

Elevation graph for March 5th ride.

The spike at mile 5 is a GPS error. Just before mile 20 is the Dutton Road clumb. The peak of the graph is the top of Bald Mountain Road overlooking the Palace of Auburn Hills.

Kevin Skipworth and I rode mountain bikes on this day. Below is the route:
