RTR

WAY green on the way up independence pass 12,200 feet above see level and over to aspen...and yes that is snow.



SNAKE RIVER in idaho, for those of you who are snake lovers....



the bike in the landscape somewhere in utah



BLOODY, BLOODY KNEE
some pictures from Ride The Rockies, a bike tour thru the colorado mountains...my bloody knee was not from a fall on the bike, but an encounter with a porta-potty door (seen on right in background) that got out of control. only blood i shed on the trip. it was cool and comfortable weather and we went thru some snow spitting on us outside of aspen. lots of food and laughs, some friends showed up to enjoy the ride and the scenery.

here we go again

Training Hill (hill being the operative word when i am going to the mountains...)


Training Trail


Ride The Rockies (RTR) spoke cards to be handed out at the top of the three passes.
