Fall Rides and a New Toy


The fall weather has had its share of rain and cold, but I have been able to get out for some great fall rides.  I've been trying to get out during the week, but work has been very busy lately.  I was able to get over to Elm Creek for an after work ride.  It was cold and there was not much traffic on the trail.  There was good amount of deer activity, it is always fun see stuff out on a ride.

They both just sat there while I took out my phone to snap a picture.  I was about 20 feet from the bigger one.  Can you see the smaller one?
We did take advantage of a nice Sunday afternoon a week or so ago and we headed down to Lebanon Hills.  We have not ridden there in a long time, man has that trail changed.  I rode the Tallboy, it felt different compared to the fat bike, I took me bit to get used to it.




On Sunday I made it over to the Woolly Trails in St. Croix Falls, WI for a couple of laps.  I always forget how much climbing there is, it was a bit of a challenge on the fat bike.  It was cloudy but it was a great day for a ride.


Where did the trail go?



We pulled the trigger on a new to us camping rig.  We have been thinking of getting a travel trailer for a few years, but after we used my parent’s trailer for the Heck of the North we decided to get one of our own.  So after some looking we found one that we really liked and we took it home Halloween.  It is a smaller trailer but for the 2 of us it will be great!  We are really looking forward to using it!
