The Reason I Love to Ride

So once again we saddle up and head for the mountains from downtown Denver. Just me, Seth, and Joey.

At Seth's request, this picture is titled, "Mmmmm, Fatty hungry."
I believe that this ride today can be called Epic. Maybe not full blown Epic, but registered on the lower end of the Epic scale. Denver to Golden, up Golden Gate Canyon, Up Robinson Hill Road, then dirt back to Golden Gate and up and over the two summits to Golden and on back to Denver.

The Colorado backcountry as seen by dirt.

It can't even register as any type of Epic unless it has dirt. This ride wasn't too long, just 4 hrs, but the terrain was steep. Gotta love when you are granny gearing it on dirt and almost stall due to the steepness and lack of traction.

It feels like its time for a nap, but really off to dinner and a night out. Yes, I will be sleeping in tomorrow.
