Colorado Trail Ride

all pics here http://kkyler.smugmug.com/Kens-Photos/M ... 8414_ZYeRz

we took one afternoon after practice at the 2010 PPIHC and went for a trail ride. The area is beautify and there are enough trails you could ride a different one daily for years before you did a repeat. However, riding at 9,000' sucks! :knary:

One of the guys was doing trail maintenance. He was carrying a chainsaw in a ruck sack...

I'd love to go back.

Will be riding the first week of August.
15 of us going out, 4-door trucks with trailers to get all the toys out.
