For the first time in a long time (weeks, months?) we got some rain this weekend! The trails in Ash Canyon were starting to feel like you were riding on the beach. I didn’t get up on the trails immediately following the rain, and rode for the first time on Monday. Wow! […]

On Saturday, I got to do something I’ve been wanting to do for a long time. A ride up into the Carson Range, starting from Carson City. I’ve done all the pieces of this trek, but never all together in one ride. I was tired of hearing about how great it is […]

More rider photos for Monday morning. These two photos are of Vance Harper, taken by Jaime Gianotti. Jaime says, “Vance, Shana & I went to Ash, and Vance got up the courage to jump the road gap. Just wanted to share the photos….”
Yes, courage. A damn heaping lot of it, […]
