1st OVERNIGHTER PART II

I tied my food stash about 10 ft up in a tree ½ mile from where I was sleeping (the small dark blob in the middle of the picture). I didn’t want Yogi to steal my pic-a-nic basket!

I woke up to a beautiful sky!

The problem with there not being a cloud in the sky all night is that it was very cold in the morning, and I had a 20-mile decent ahead of me.

I had to stop every now and then to warm up … and to take some pictures.

This is one of my favorites.

Great shots and really nice narrative! Except for the mosquitoes, sounds like it was terrific!

GREAT RIDE

I had a great ride this evening. It was one of those rides where I was feeling no pain and it just felt good to go super hard ... and then go harder. I haven't had a ride like this in at least a month and it felt great! I was able to snap a couple of pics along the way with the sun setting behind the Flat Irons.

TO WHET YOUR APPETITE

The sunrises in Tuscany were quite spectacular!

RUNNING WITH THE ADVENTURE DOGS

I often see people talking on cell phones when walking their dogs. They are basically ignoring their dog and missing a great opportunity to bond and witness the joy that dogs find in simple things like running. Dogs have an ability to jump into life with all fours and fully experience their surroundings. We should all be so carefree!

RIDE LONG AND SMILE
