Photos from your rides.

I've been experimenting with my bikepacking setups recently. The Crosscheck is faster on pavement/gravel but suffers a bit on singletrack. The Wednesday is killer on singletrack and gravel, but suffers a bit on pavement. As singlespeed, I can only spin 15.5mph average. I'm about to put the Wednesday back in fatbike mode and put gears back on, so we'll try it again then.

A few from yesterday as I chased the last few hours of sunlight...

Nowhere near as dramatic as Joost pal but dawn patrol nevertheless...

Oh man this brings back memories from my time at West Point. "Bridge to bridge" was a standard ride. Great shot of 218 (I think)

Nice! That shot from me was last week overlooking the Blackwater Canyon. There’s some great gravel (and Singletrack) out that way.

Where in WV? Looks like the Lindy Lookout, Blackwater State Park!

Day two of my three-day Adirondack cycling trip last weekend took me to the camp of DJG21 on the beautiful shores of Lake Champlain to ride with him and AngryScientist. This is the far northeast corner of the Adirondacks, where the granite cliffs of the ‘Dacks loom over the sparkling blue waters of Lake Champlain.

Our 42-mile ride took us through many an open meadow, through forests, and over some pretty tough climbs. Highland Road in particular had some steep slopes–including one 15% stretch–but also some of the most stunning views out across the lake toward Vermont. Particularly thrilling was the sight of DJG21 winning the prime sprint–against a tractor!

We also made a stop to see what we could of the Ausable Chasm, where the Ausable river plunges down toward Champlain. The canyon itself is private property and you have to pay to go down there, so we satisfied ourselves with what we could see from the route 9 highway bridge. But it was still an awe-inspiring sight and triggered a true chasmgasm!

We also rode by Ausable Brewing, home of some allegedly very good post-ride recovery drinks. We headed back there after the ride to see if they lived up to their reputation (they did!) and also sample the wares from the food truck vendor. DJG’s friends Fanny and Dax accompanied us to the brewery. It was a hot day to ride, and the sun made for some pretty high contrast photos, but I think we saw the best of the local countryside!

We rode the back way into Kings Canyon Nat’l Park last weekend. Glad I finally did it after talking about it forever.

Always love seeing your snaps, Dave. Fun surprise to come across them over on that Facebook thing, too.

. . . with my friend Evan out of the village of Brandon. It's at the base of the Green Mountains, so spectacular scenery. We didn't tackle Brandon Gap, though!

. . . in the midst of the storm. It was just me and my buddy Isaias out on the local bike trail in a brisk breeze.
