No photos from recent rides, but I'll drop a few from the past years.
First set: Attempted Mauna Kea summit in August of 2021. Pretty crazy ride, more or less easy riding until the access road, then it's a steep grind to the top. The gravel section is notably tricky. Disappointed that I didn't make it to the peak, but maybe I'll come back some day. Photos are of the very start (~6:30 am), base of the access road, more access road, visitor center, gravel section, and final stretch of pavement about where I stopped.

Second set: LeMond Loop, June 2022. Learned a painful lesson in nutrition and fueling. Mount Rose is beautiful.

Third set: A short pre-ride the day before, then the Free Ride, put on by the Vegan Cyclist and many others. Incredible event, excellent people, a beautiful route, and an amazing experience overall.

Sorry about the lackluster image quality, it took a lot of compression to get some of these on here. Hope you enjoy!
