I went and rode the whole enchilada a 27 mile downhill trail from La Sal Mountains above Moab down to to Moab it’s amazing.View attachment 4580344View attachment 4580345View attachment 4580347 Then we went and climbed Castleton Tower the next day fun weekendView attachment 4580348View attachment 4580349
Gorgeous pics, I completely jealous! Someday I'll ride there.

I didn't get out for a ride this weekend. It rained hard all day Friday so the trails would have been a muddy mess. I'm all packed and ready to go for a solo ride this afternoon if the trials aren't too muddy.

That's not much taken off. That almost looks to wide for me.....that converts to somewhere around 28 3/8" like grabbing the bull by the horns.
When the bike was fit for me they only wanted to shave off 10mm, 740mm felt too wide but 720mm was perfect. If you buy a current LIV Hail (giant's womens line) the extra small comes with 780mm and the s/m/l comes with 800mm. Riding an older bike with narrow bars feels twichy and unstable to me.

Been chilly here the past few days...Wearing long pants again :sad: It got down to about 40F last night. But the sun is out and I may go for a bike ride this afternoon...on black top, lol...If my truck gets returned.

Got a haircut yesterday for the first time in near 3 months...I was looking like Shaggy from Skooby Doo!

Gonna go do a little grow area cleanup and maintenance first though....while humming "sitting on a dock of the bay". ...tune is soooo stuck in my head! Man I want to go on need a vacation!

Yeah wide is the new trend........but body mechanics stay the same. Just something I noticed......if you like it go with it :)

Today is the 5th anniversary of my retirement on 5/31/15. So I worked a double to celebrate. Cut grass at 2 places on dayturn, and clay barred and waxed the wife's Jeep on evening turn. Looks good, you'd be fucking amazed at how much dirt a clay bar and lube takes off what appears to be a clean car. I'll do the wheels and tires tomorrow, not allowed to work a triple. Safety violation, OSHA might be watching. Lol
My 12 year is coming up this month. I remember the start date of my first "real" job, but not my retirement day.
I used a clay bar for the first time a couple of years ago. Shades of Blue Coral! with all the rubbing, but it did work nice.
