Recent Fun

Recent Fun Catch-Up

We have been busy lately and I have not had much time to get stuff posted up on here.  So I thought that I would just do a quick update with what we had going on.

Over the Fourth of July Kyleen and I headed to the cabin for some riding at Cuyuna.  The weather was great and the riding was awesome.  We love to get out and ride up there, so much so that we headed back up the next weekend and rode again.  This time it was a family outing, we were joined by Troy, Terry, Kat and Paul.  It is always a blast.

Hopper Hill Overlook, I think that every Cuyuna rider has this picture.
We earned some good beer!
Kinley was enjoying the deck and keeping a watch eye on the yard.
We closed out the 4th with a nice fire and some fireworks across the lake.
I really wanted to get out on my 9ZERO7, I really have not rode it since I finished building it.  It was a blast to ride.  I took it over to Elm Creek and ride the single track on the fatty was a lot of fun.  There are few things that I’m going to change on the bike, but I really like the way it rides.




Kyleen competed in the Annandale Tri, this was her second race of the year.  She did awesome!  She finished 2nd in her age group and this was her first podium finish.  I’m very proud of her and happy to see that all of her hard work is paying off.  This was here first race on her QR Tri bike, she was really excited to see what improvements she made over last year. 



Up next for me is the 2013 Rusty Ride 50 miler.  This will be my first long distance mountain bike race, I was going to do the Cheq metric 100, but that was a rain out.  Kyleen is going to be doing the YWCA Women's Tri, she did this one last year and it is a great race.
