I rode the Pioneer Trail today in N. California. It's just above Nevada City, where the Tour of California will start next year, and where there is some incredible mountain biking. The trail was fantastic. We did 30 miles, most of it single track, through a ton of different environments. The ride starts at about 3500 ft and we climb up over the first 15 miles to about 5000 ft, observing the changes in tree's, dirt and terrain the whole way.
Trail is pretty well signed: http://www.cleanspokes.com/pictures/DSC01563.JPG Purty: http://www.cleanspokes.com/pictures/DSC01445.JPG What it looks like to ride an awesome Jabberwocky: http://www.cleanspokes.com/pictures/DSC01465.JPG This rocky section was pretty .. slick: http://www.cleanspokes.com/pictures/DSC01466.JPG This area was absolutely beautiful. The colors and the silence were unbelievable: http://www.cleanspokes.com/pictures/DSC01504.JPG Rolling along the flume side: http://www.cleanspokes.com/pictures/DSC01566.JPG |
Looks gorgeous!

Man those Pioneer pics look nice. (I'd kill for that kind of dry right now).
I finished my first Wicked Ride of the East. Rocky, rooty, muddy, rocky, rooty, rocky, muddy, did I mention rocky? What an ass-whoopin'. It was a beautiful cool day after an overnight soaking of an inch or more in a couple hours, so things were slick in some places. What an awesome trail system they have there, it rocked my world. |

4 miles this evening-dashed out for Frozen Yogurt, YUM!
|
20 sucky road miles.
|
200 crunches, 40 pushups, and 30min on the stationary...life sux!!!
I'm gonna try to hit a trail soon, dang it. My knee feels strong right now. |
A nice road ride and a bit of trail work at a local trail since all of the trails are closed due to flooding. Afterwards a few drinks and some fatty pizza!
|
Just around the neighborhood at a snails pace as I helped the wife along ..... riding with clipless pedals for the first time.
This weekend on the trails is going to be interesting. |
yesterday: 16 road miles (commuting to work and back), and then about 11 awesome trail miles.

I rode my bicycle today in the woods with nature and squirrels and stuff.
:thumb: |
15 miles single track super fun
|
16 miles of fairly hard trails on 2 hours of sleep in on and off rain makes for a long ride.
|
Mine was probably only 8-10...but after the hiatus, I was so happy to have the granny.

With the mix of everything it made for some truly hairy situations.
