Labor Day weekend wetness.

This past weekend was definitely 'cross weather. A soggy, wet weekend got us ready for a season of mud, using our great gear and always having a good attitude. It may have been a bit chilly at times, but the singletrack was still sweet. Saturday we had a nice outing in the pouring rain, but stuck on the road. It wasn't too bad. Sunday and Monday, however, it was all about fat tires with friends. Not many brave souls came. Wendy and Emily toughed it out for 2 great days of mountain biking and Erin Ford joined us Monday. Sunday it was up pocket creek to do Gunsight Ridge & Gumjuwac. A bit chilly on the descent, but big smiles prevailed. Or was that frozen fingers and feet??? Monday the weather improved a bit and we did our Boulder Lakes special loop from White River side. It was simply amazing. This may be my last 2 consecutive days of mountain biking this season. Big ride planned for next sunday, but the weather was feeling very cyclocross like. It is that time of year...

The rain started again shortly after... But see, we are smiling...

Ahh, the ever changing weather... Not many pictures taken after this due to weather conditions.

Tim didn't waste any time post ride on Sunday getting a fire going.

Monday was much nicer. The girls at Boulder Lake.

Tim comforts me after I acquired my 'third knee'. I hit my knee on my stem when a rock forced me to clip out. I rode through it, but ouch. It hurt. And it looked pretty cool when I finally stopped.

Cutest guy ever.

It takes a real man to dress like this.
