Wow, a lot to unpack from this one. It was a goodie but a toughy so let’s dive right in. The announced route was out to Overton starting from the River Mountain Loop Trailhead located just outside Lake Mead NRA. Optionally, a group would be starting from the Henderson Crafthaus.…

Dang I’m tired. Went to bed super late for me and then my brain woke me up an hour earlier than usual. That means early to bed tonight to be out early for a LONG day in the saddle tomorrow. T-Minus 42 days until PCBR. Mostly sunny-Sunny, 61°F-81°F, Feels like…
Definitely felt better riding home tonight versus last night. Seems going a little slower on the way in translates into being a little faster on the way home. Also enjoying these warmer temperatures. Certainly makes riding in easier. Don’t have to psych myself up to gear up and go. Better…
Was probably a little over dressed this morning, but I’d rather be a little warm than cold. Looking forward to the forecast lows for the remainder of the week. Early morning temps in the high 50s to low 60s? Yes please. Felt nice and fresh this morning, but felt like…

Nothing like nearly eight pounds of technology to make your ride home more interesting. I’ve been working on two 17″ laptops for the School of Medicine and need to return them tomorrow. Loaded up the panniers with one in each and set off. Overall wasn’t too terrible. Not really looking…
