Beginnings

Just back from lacrosse practice
Ohh man, my first real bike. I remember the 20 and 30 mile rides I would do on that bike trying to chase my brother and his friends through the hills of northern Baltimore county.
My first true bike was an Evil Knievel bike which I loved. Particularly the fake gas tank



The Firecracker has come and gonna now and we had a blast in Breckenridge. It was BRECKtacular. Before the Firecracker hapened though there have been some killer rides. I have been not taking the camera as much anymore. I have taken a few pics from the rides though. One ride we did was the Glorieta to Apache canyon ride where we shuttle to the Baptist center and leave a car at El Gauncho to retrieve the car we left at the Baptist center. This time though we had Anthony's son Sky drop us off. : )



THe meadow below the tower is a lovely spot for a snack and to adjust your headset if needed



Enjoying the trails above Canada del los Alamos









Had a sweet ride a few weeks ago with Brian from Mellow Velo to get ready for the cochiti 100 that was happnin soon after. I was shooting for only laps 1 and 3 in cochiti and I succeeded so i was stoked. The full 100 just seems like too much suffering for me. Hats off to the 5 or so people that have finished it.

Brian's Skin is very vibrant





Brett (i think his name is) was along as well.





I have been enjoying the Abita IPA lately. Especially after the climb out of borrego




I will leave you with Crazy Rainbow Guy. I do enjoy a rainbow. We get tons of them here in Santa Fe. We even get frequent double rainbows. I have never reacted quite like this guy though. I appreciate his enthusiasm though. Thanks Eric



I LOVE Animal Collective and this video they did for Guys Eyes really captures the feeling of their music, to me at least.
