A few good rides





This was more of a surprise kind of riding, surprisenly the dirt kind of got dried but just for a short time. Maybe 2 or 3 days worth of dried dirt. All of Black Hill was ridable, just barely so it was fun to ride up there. Even I went on a night ride in the dark with a friend, Durke. He is an amazing rider, we were climbing up Black Hill and he was on a singlespeed and he was flying. While I was riding, I could see a white little light all the way at the top in the darkness of the night and he was waiting and then he came down a little bit circling around while I was still pedaling up. At the top was a really good view of the city lights and a tad little bit of red sunset down by Richfield. It was awesome, then it got cold, temperature really makes a difference when the sun is down but I made it. I couldn't get warm in the hot shower and I even drank some hot chocolate but I finally got warm after putting on a sweater and climbed into my bed. The day before the night ride, I just left church after the first meeting and went out for a ride because it was so nice outside and while people were sitting in the church pews, I was out enjoying the great sunlight and some fun exercising. Then on the day before that ride, I went on a short road ride up the Canyon Road, and two days before that one, also went up the Canyon Road. I am tired and good for a few days!
