Next step is getting him started on indoor structured rides!
Jokes aside, I wish my family took me on bike rides. Looks like a blast.

Iowa Wind And Rock
342 mile, single stage, 34 hour cut-off, gravel and dirt road self-supported race.
I DNF’d at mile 200 after what I believe was a poor clothing choice at mile 182(adding a second layer of tights put too much pressure and tension on my knee, causing pain)

What gorgeous pictures! Looks like an amazing ride!
Fall looks amazing there! So pretty!
Headed out to Mt. Lemmon in Tucson for my Leavitt +2 today - this was my first attempt at a structured outdoor workout. I thought it was a relatively steady gradient but my 10s average power was still kinda jumpy. Probably means I need to work on my pedal stroke, ERG mode has spoiled me ![]()
Many of the rides in Moab have great scenery. White Rim is pretty special though.
Yeah - I’m making an effort to find an activity I can do with my kids. I can’t run, hike, ski or play ball sports any more due to an ankle injury, so riding is it. We’re going to Moab again in a couple of weeks for a family trip. My kids get a big ego boost from riding the trails there (like me I guess) ![]()
Looks halfway to being a gravel road!
California Cobblestones!
Compared to some of the roads I rode back home that looks in great condition ![]()
Germans keep things pretty clean ![]()
On the gravel bike in weather that varied from heavy, moist fog and 7C to, on the other side of some mountains, a clear sky and 14C. Not fast, some of the descents were slower than normal due to the layer of leaves, plus some wandering to explore new-to-me routes. There was some climbing. There were, of course, also cow bells.
Probably my last group ride for a bit
and it was a pretty relaxed one
so I came back and done my 2h TR session. It look like it got a whole load of interference halfway through
I did manage to grab a post op 17s PB on the road ride though ![]()
Short-ish, brisk-ish spin (on the first day it hasn’t rained in a week)
Bison hill never gets easier.
It’s a tad chilly but apart from that the weather is almost perfect for a long ride ![]()
Unfortunately I only had an hour, the likes of Carter is perfect for that. Folksworth is shown on the map but it’s a tiny wee place and the ride was mostly away from any populous/ traffic.
Porcupine Rim.
Burro Pass and Hazard were snowed out, so we started at UPS.
This ride is just amazing. So lucky to be able to ride trails like this.
This is likely my last MTB ride of the year. Time to put away the MTB and break out the fat bike

Well that wins this week’s prize for best cycling photos.
That is AWESOME.
