Fickle

The past couple mornings have been absolutely beautiful, as long as one does not mind riding in sporadic 30+ mph wind gusts. I took advantage of the weather to ride some fun dirt that has dried out nicely after the warm weekend melted off the south-facing slopes.


Today was Bike to Work Day in Boulder. I took the long route, venturing high into the foothills. I could see some foul weather moving in over the mountains, but I enjoyed the sun's warmth for a few hours.


The current view out my office window is depressing. It looks like it's time to put the dorky fenders back on, let some air out of the tires, and make use of my waterproof booties.

Bike riding in Fort Collins on Tuesday, along the road paralleling Horsetooth Reservoir, I was getting blasted in the face with gravel. I think the 20 mph wind forecast was a bit underestimated.

Look at all that snow!! Biking through the forest looks really cool, though. :)

What are you talking about?! The view of the Eurovan is excellent. I wouldn't be getting ANY work done Kurt!
