Great to see Eug again on his annual flagstaff visit....D

full weekend......

Boy we sure have pretty trails here in Northern Arizona....Definitely need some rain on this part of the AZ trail....

Fall is here...

Great to hang out with Steve today.....though I was pretty tired from riding 80miles yesterday in the Annual Pines to Mines...OOouchhh.... Off road from Flagstaff to Jerome AZ

We really do love the single track we have in our back yard....

Pines to Mines Started at about 40 degrees then we rode to 90-100 degrees....Felt great on the first part with Doug Hall and Annie to the river , but then I came to a crawl...Gosh the heat after the river was tough on the last 14 or so mile climb up to Jerome...for about 1-2 hours I was suffering bad crawling from shade to shade....Wow that was tough but the end result of making it to cold beer, food and good friends is what gets me through the WALL....

First I have seen for the season...

Trying to take in the beauty and forget the pain

Looking far off into the distance to see home and where we started from that morning

Connected with Melissa at the last aid station after drinking some beer to feel better and enjoyed the last few miles with her.... Thanks to all those folks out there that helped ease the suffering....Awesome Job Annie, she looked the best for the wear.....And definitely strong on the climb out while the rest of us wilted in the heat....Good times
