THE BEGINNING



It is a gloomy day here in Colorado, perfect timing for beginning a blog that I have been meaning to create for quite some time. Many people I meet inspire me daily, but I owe the start of this blog to a man I have never met, a man from the same neck of the woods where I grew up – Minnesota. This blog will have a similar theme to his since we share some of the same interests, namely long, exploratory rides and taking pictures along the way. He goes by the name of Gnat and I will post a link to his blog for you. I hope you enjoy the images on this blog, most of which have been and will be taken during rides on my Salsa Fargo. It is a great bike and just looking at it inspires me to ride long and smile.

THE MICKELSON TRAIL: DAY 1

After work we drove up to the Black Hills just outside of Edgemont to find a quick camp spot so we could start the Mickelson Trail bright and early.  The plan: ride, and see new things.  Camp the first night under a nearly full Super Moon.  The start of the Mickelson.  Fully loaded and ready to roll.  The trail quickly separates from any roads and leads into the Black Hills.  As we neared Custer there was more and more exposed granite.  The November sun was casting long shadows.  Taking it all in. We had planned to camp out each night, but the weather was a solid 10 degrees colder than we had planned. So after riding to the top of the climb to the north of Hill City we made the wise decision to turn around and head back into town and get a hotel room.
