Rock gardens, roughly 130 feet of climbing per mile, a little bit of mud, a little bit of ice. If you like that, go to Sterling. Me? I LOVE it! The fresh air did my body good today.

Riding When the Leaves Are Gone
One of the cool things about riding when the leaves are gone, is that you can see the features of the rolling hills in the distance. Jockey Hollow National Park is on the other side of the peak. First ride of 2023 and got in 1000″ of elevation gain today.
S P L A T!
Aside from sending it down Leeroy, the other best part of today’s ride at Stephens was realizing that I did pack in my car, a change of clean clothes, after loosing my footing and falling into a creek that was filled with darn cold water. After the initial shock, it was actually pretty exhilarating and felt great! Out of 5 water crossings, I made 4 of them. The fifth one I slipped on ice and went >>> S P L A T! LOL.
Lew Mo – Way to go!
Lew Mo. Trails in pretty good shape. Mostly dry. Some ice at the bottom of the blue trail, but easy enough to go around.

Santa helped us along!
We rode Hally Toe upwards, which weren’t easy, but Santa helped us along! Winter riding is awesome.
Climb up. Send it down.
Sterling. Redback Trail. Bursts of frigid winds, dustings of frost, icicles hanging off of cliffs. But it was sunny and we got to climb up, then send it down. Climb up. Send it down. Climb up. Send it down. Over and over. What an awesome day!
