Nice!
You should have called ahead and had them turn the irrigators onto the road. Then you could have had an Unbound mud experience. The corn is pretty high with the 4th of July still a few weeks away.

TNG with a Stop at Keepsake Cidery

The gravel roads are bone dry and a little sketchy in places where fresh gravel has been laid down.

We had another fine turnout for our Tuesday Night Gravel (TNG) ride with the Cannon Valley Velo Club out of Northfield, Mn. The nice folks at Keepsake Cidery south of Dundas were kind enough to open for us tonight (they're usually only open on weekends) and I believe we made it worth their while!

The Mesabi Trail and Iron Range Roads

My wife and I made a trip north to Minnesota's Iron Range last weekend where I took some time to ride parts of the Mesabi Trailā€”something I've been itching to do. It was well worth the 4-hour drive north to check it out.

Making Moo Friends!

Scenes from yesterday's ride of 57 miles / 92 km. A line of showers came through the night before leaving behind some dustless gravel, something we've not had much of this summer. It was a beautiful day to be on two wheels! Also, we're now enjoying the Idaho Stop (legally) in Minnesota as of last week. I quite like it!

River Bottoms Romp

Due to extensive spring and summer flooding, Thursday was my first time riding the river bottoms since last winter. It was nice to be riding the familiar trails again. Some tall grasses slowed me at times but it was never long before I broke through to open trail again. This may be my favorite kind of cycling.

Last Night's Keyword was "Hydration"

Last night's keyword was "hydration". It's usually not one of my strengths but I did okay. The temp and the humidity were oppressive!

St Paul Classic 2023

I rode the St Paul Classic with my daughter and two of her friends this morning on a beautiful fall day. It's always a well-organized and fun event.

45 years ago I took part in a legendary ride (fourth from left), the second Crested Butte to Aspen over 12,700' Pearl Pass.



I was invited back this year to observe the anniversary of that ride, but since I am now 77 y.o. and live at sea level, I told the organizers that I could only participate if they supplied an e-bike (I don't own one myself).

Here is something I did on it.

Autumn Ride

A medical condition has had me sidelined for most of the last month. I finally made it back out today to take in some mild temps, light winds, and pops of fall color along the way. It was a beautiful day to be ridingā€”especially gravel.

River Bottoms on a Quiet Sunday Afternoon

I've been riding the River Bottoms trails for nearly 12 years. It's a near-magical place situated between suburbs of Minneapolis/St Paul and in the shadow of the MSP airport. I remember the first time I made my way down there on my Mukluk fat bike. It seemed surreal. It's a gem of a place to ride and leave the troubles of the world behind.
