Snippets of Moab

I put together a short video from the Moab trip in November. It doesn't seem like it was that long ago, but I guess it was. Anyway, The Stallion did a great job of capturing some Moab riding footage of me and Hollywood, I captured a few frames myself. I took some time last month to compile a short video. Finally, a blog entry.

Enjoy...

Fruita Fall '07 Day 3

The third day was to be done back in Fruita. I had to get back home in time to pack for a trip leaving bright and early Monday morning. The Crew packed up the bags and the bikes and we were at Dennys by 7:00a for breakfast. What a breakfast it was. A quick dose of eggs, bacon, french toast, and orange juice and we were headed out toward Fruita.

We decided to ride some of the classics at the Kokopelli trail head.



We did Mary's loop, Horsethief's Bench, and eventually made our way over to Mack's Ridge and ended on Moore's Fun. It was a pretty jammed packed day. After about 15 miles and 3.5 hours of riding it was time to hit the road back to the front range.



The sad part is the camera I brought on the trip was not taking good pictures and by the time I got to Fruita I only took a few pictures. The frustration of deleting over half of the pictures I had taken finally got to me. Who needs pictures anyway :-).

We ended up stopping off at Hollywood's house. Unfortunately, we had a little bike rack problem and I couldn't transfer the bike rack back on to my car. So I loaded The Stallions bike and bags into the back of my ol' LandCruiser. I left my bikes and rack at Scott's house and we proceeded to Fort Collins. Luckily, I knew I wouldn't be needed a bike this week because I would be out of town.

We ended up getting back to the house before 8:00p. Plenty of time to pack and to bedtime with the boys. It was a great, quick trip. Hopefully we can repeat it again sometime.

The only part of the day missing was having a final see ya later ride with BillyG.

Here's the slide show of the trip. I'll be posting a video soon.
