Ride the Mountain

Healing with time.

During our trip to Colorado this summer my Intense Spider mountain bike fell off the bike rack on the back of the camper while driving on a very rough Forest Service road. It was a total loss. After much effort, my insurance company covered most of the loss, so that was good. I ended up buying the bike that I had before the Spider back from the person who bought it from me. He was injured, and figured he wouldn't be able to ride for quite a while. Besides, he wanted to upgrade. Anyway, he had taken good care of the bike and I was happy to have it back.

Today I went for a ride after work. I schlepped along the Instamatic (aka Canon 5D) and took a couple of photos. The one above is of an oak tree healing over from a long ago trimming. And the one below is of Railroad trail looking back towards the city.

You can see it was a beautiful day. And, it was fun to be back on a mountain bike...
