    Y'all come visit or to stay. It's a great place to live and you can ride all year round (with the proper rain gear).

    I love the "green, tan, and dead" line. My sis lives in Americus GA so I'll have to ask her if that's the color scheme there as well. I just know the heat and humidity would make me bonkers.

    Wow - really some pretty places! Seattle, San Francisco area and I love Zurich. Was in Zurich two years ago - next time I go I'll make sure I have a bike. Will be in San Francisco next October - hope I can go biking there too, but don't think I could keep up with Veronica's group!

    I've noticed a lot of rides here seem to include a water feature, as do mine. I often include a stop on the boardwalk to check on the ocean conditions. Here is Saturday's ocean report - taken about 1 mile from my house. I feel very lucky to have this view once in a while. But sometimes it's more like the 2nd pic.

    Salsa - I will make it a point to snap a pic of our lovely "fall" foilage tomorrow for your viewing pleasure.

    Looking at these pics, I really wanted to visit Veronica cuz that tree pic is amazing; then seeing Switzerland made me realize how much I miss Germany. Then the ocean shots got me itching to go to the beach.......

    I really need to win the lottery soon.........

    Great pics. Beautiful scenery. I'll just be posting some neighborhood pics when I get them made, I'm afraid. Oh well! Until I get away from the nabe, they'll have to do!

    Todays Ride In Santa Barbara County

    I am on vacation. Here is todays ride. The first pix was taken on the Coastal Bike Path between my hotel in Monteceito and Santa Barbara (BikePath). The second pix was taken from the Santa Barbara Harbor. The last two were taken at Arroyo Burro Beach, one facing the beach and the other facing the mountains. As you can see it was an overcast day, but I still had a great ride, georgeous scenery. (I can't figure out how to past the pic in the message so I attached them instead).

    Wow! you all live in such wonderful places, i'd be itching to get out and ride (even more than normal) if i lived where you all live.

    Maybe i'll take some pictures of my "scenic" route, some pigs and a scrapyard!

    There are some really great pics that have been posted here.

    Well, here's my contribution.

    A short distance away from where I live in England, there's the Isle of Wight, it's famous for Cowes week (international yachting), infamous pop concerts back in 1968 and 1969.......I was at one of of them. Also, the famous Needles (which is a rock formation).

    Anyway, went for a weekend of bike riding a couple of years ago, riding along the top, it was fantastic but scared the cr*p out of me!



    The second pic really was blood sweat and tears for me!



    I'm not too brave at the downhill stuff, it's good looking back at the photos though.

    I guess that is why I enjoy this site, reading about all the rides you guys manage to do.

    C & O Canal Tow Path

    I did this ride yesterday with Kalidurga and divingbiker, but it's among Kali's favorite routes. The C&O canal runs from Georgetown to Cumberland, MD, so 180 miles. We rode at 12+ mile stretch from Rileys Lock to White's Ferry.

    Near our start at Rileys Lock


    Looking upsteam from Edwards Ferry

    A couple of snaps from a favourite road and trail ride. The trail ride is super easy but lovely when you want to take the mountain bike out for a spin but not have to work hard. Its very beautiful. The other two are from a road ride near my home.

    favorite so far

    I probably will never get to do this ride again, but it was awesome. La Bajada Hill in New Mexico. That's my boy descending. This picture really doesn't do it justice.

    Below is my fiance piling up the climb section to the MTB skills loop in Hamsterley Forest near where we live in County Durham UK. It was really misty and damp yesterday so it made everything slippery and pretty dangerous and exciting.

    The second pic is the top of the loop, pretty forest background with a big warning sign, telling you where the nearest hospital is and how to get there!

    Hey Cyclchyk, I'm opposite of you on the Ga/Al border, and lots of red clay here too.
