Beautiful sunny day in the upper 70s. Beginning of Quartz Ridge trail in PHX Mtn Preserve; a technical descent on a gravel bike that my goal is to cleanly ride by years end. There are a few spots still that give me troubles requiring dismounts.

Really tight curly coat that does not shed or smell like a hound even when wet.
Great dog and he likes these easy rides, just trots along at a decent pace with me.
Now my sons dog just loves to flat out run hard. He is a 3 year old Mt cuz. We take him on 15/20 mile faster gravel rides and he just loves it.
This was the fall of 2021. We did a 18 miler at 16 mph and he kept up the whole time.

Only 8.5 miles from my home, and I always enjoy stopping at the spillway of the Croton Dam. Just getting out on my bike today, along with my wife, after a month-plus of no rides, big yay!

Ended up rolling into some nicely packed gravel on a road ride yesterday.

The SBC has been on the trainer during these winter months. I finally got the Helix out on the road a couple days ago. I just love that cold, crisp 30º-40ºF air. It just feels right.

Highly variable conditions yesterday with temps in the low 50s but still a lot of ice on the trails. Perfect for bombing around on studs.

That's flat-out gorgeous.
