I'm just gonna take a minute and let it ride

The lovely climb up Pacheco Canyon rd to start the ride

   Made a run down rio en medio about a month ago with Matt and Anthony and Mark. Rio en medio is one of the more technical trails around Santa Fe. Was a great ride and we drank beer and threw rocks at bottles at the bottom of pacheco canyon road.

   The weekend after that ride Krista was in town and looking to get a SS ride in while she was in town so we met up at Cochiti. I got there and a few minutes later Andy and a friend of his pulled into the parking lot just by coincidence so they joined us on a fun ride up Bland to del norte to killer switchbacks and so on. Was a great ride with everyone on SS's

   Rode Atalaya with Raney a bit ago and we climbed up in the daylight and descended in darkness over to the Dale Ball south trails. It was a great ride. Mike is fast so it is good to be chasing someone the whole ride. only got a couple sunset shots and an arm extension shot of my first Celebration ale of the year.







   What is in your audio player? I have K'naan in mine. I really enjoy this desktop concert he gave at npr.


                           Happy Holidays everyone.
