Well time snuck up on me, been whirlwind of rides, meeting new folks, etc!

 August 27, We had the privilege of showing 2-Out of State couples and trike riders around some of the trails in our local area. 1, from TX. and 1, from IN. We put together a mix of trails to form loops, on August 27, on the 28th. they both rode the Early Bird Hike and Bike at the Garden of the Gods City Park on the 29th, we took them on a different Loop Trail!

September 1, We headed out on the Rock Island Trail to check on the progress of the new "crossing light" at RIT and Murry Blvd. It's started but not much to look at yet! It's really needed as it's hard to get across Murry Blvd safely!!





September 3, We headed out to pick up the Midland Trail and head to Manitou Springs,

I wanted to do a "Promo" video for the, Buffalo Lodge Bicycle Resort. It's a great place to stay and ride out of here in Colorado Springs, CO. On the way home we stopped for a shade and snack break at Monument Valley Park and Stanley Lake.





September 7, We headed over to the Starsmoor Nature and Visitor Center in North Cheyenne Canyon Park. Due to road construction on our usual route, we decided to use the bike lane on 8th. Street to Cheyenne Blvd. and up the Canyon Road. Headed back to America the Beautiful Park and then picked up Shooks Run Trail to head back to the storage unit.






September 9, Jo had and appointment so I headed off alone and decided to see if the City had ever improved the "Homestead Trail" on my own. LOL, no I'd say it's worse than the last time I rode it a few years ago! It was a very Rough and Tumble trail ride, check out the Video!



Found a different way back so I didn't have to ride in the "WEEDS" and dirt single track, stopped at a Mavrick Station for lunch and iced tea, headed back to the Rock Island Trail and then to the storage unit.


September 10, after the tough ride on the 9th, we just took a "Kickback" ride here and there on several pieces of different trails! LOL, this old man was just warn out from yesterday's ride on the Homestead Trail!


Stopped to have a "end of the ride" Herbal Berry Iced Tea and snack at the Good Neighbors Meeting House off Shooks Run, headed back to the storage area! That's all for now folks, thanks for checking out the BLOG! :)
