White Fall

It's a white fall here in Utah.  Nothing like a little skiing to help pass the time until...well, skiing.

Alta, caught between Fall & Winter.

Me, caught between Biking & Skiing

 My Bike, caught between Dirt & Water.

My grin, caught between Stoked & Totally Stoked.

My photographer, caught between Tired & Confused.

My ski poles, caught between Rocks & Snow.

Bike trails, caught between Mud & Ice.

My skis, caught between Resting & Waiting...

Always waiting on winter,

Jake

Red Mud

So it seems Fall has arrived in Utah now and the rainstorms it brings have followed suits. Other than teasing us with light snow dust above 10,000' it provides us with some awesome mountain biking conditions.

The combination of the rain, dry earth in UT, and red tires results in some awesome trail riding.

Here are some photos from the Mid-Mountain & Spiro Trails in Park City last weekend.

I outrun the Fall storm system

It’s not fun until I find something to jump off of

I ride past some awesome greenery

That's all until my next ride!

Recipe for lame crashes:
(1) parts: first biking of the season
(1) parts: first time in clipless pedals
(1) parts: narrow areas between bridges and storage bins

Cheers,
