Great Diablo ride this morning

March 7th, 2010 stone No comments

Dan and I spent a couple hours up on the Devil Mtn this morning.  17 mile loop – great ride.  Unsure of the conditions, I brought the 29er out – paying dearly for it also.  That is a tough place to single speed.  Anyway, stopped a few times to take some nature shots.  Nothing too special.  It was absolutely perfect weather up above the fog layer though.  And the trails were in great shape – couple muddy spots, but overall fantastic.  I’m thinking weekday night rides are back on!

Pleasanton Ridge picture dump…

Not sure if I’ve thrown any up these up here yet – basically a picture dump of the past 2 months up on Pleasanton Ridge.  Nothing special…although the one of Dan is kind of cute.  Been a lot of solo rides up there recently…

Yeah, it’s been raining here, but we have it pretty good–that Nishiki looks pretty lonely.
