I do not post here very often anymore...no horrible reason just trying to avoid the "guilts" at work for not doing what I should be...I do however continue to lurk and absorb all the wonderful stories and accomplishments! (in the evening...hehe) Well done girls...now to share my views from this last weekend...
Cheers!![]()
I am a nobody; nobody is perfect, and therefore I am perfect.
Thanks for those beautiful shots! My mother went up to her mountain property (Ashe county, NC) this weekend and said that the leaves were just stupendous this year. From your photos, I can see that she was not kidding. Even here in central NC, the trees are getting awfully pretty!

The pix in this thread continue to surprise and captivate me! One of these days I'll remember to take my camera along on one of my own rides!

A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort.
The most effective way to do it, is to do it.

Utah is my favorite place for riding and hoping to talk some TE ladies into next year either doing The Skinny Tire Festival out of Moab in March or LAGBRAU in September. You will not see prettier scenary anywhere and the roads in Utah are meant for riding, clean, in good repair and no traffic. The State is desolate, but beautiful.

Here are some photos from my trip to the homeland (Crested Butte). Trail 401 is a must-do, and offers something different every month in the progression from spring flowers to summer corn lily and cow parsnip 4 feet high slapping your legs to amazing autumn aspen leaves. I was up there in late July.
Whew, I made it!
View at the top, turned slightly left from the last pic. The faint trail in the center is the old way up. The trail to the right is the new, improved re-route.
Turn a little more to the left and it's time to drop in!
Damn, this is fun!!

!! Mt. Crested Butte is the prominent lacolith on the right. See the valley floor? That's where I came from, and where I'm headed
