Beyond the gray sky

One ride leads to another- ARIZONA!
Now, I am in Arizona- spending time with my Mom..All riding must be done before 9 AM or after 7PM- the temps hover in the 105-110 range during the day, but I have managed to do some sweet riding. I didnt have the memory card in my camera yesterday - so cant post some of the pics from Catalina State Park yet-but my Mom took some good ones. The Riillito River Trail is a paved, shaded ride along the river.. Lots of wildlife- even a coyote trotting along, but he got away before I could get a picture. Last night we had a spectacular thunderstorm- so after the folks went to bed, warning us to stay inside- my son Chris and I ook off on the bikes to enjoy the rain, lightning and thunder!

Beware of the jackalopes. They hunt around sunrise/sunset.

Jordan, It has only been 110 this week- we had a spectacular monsoon yesterday! I only ride early am, and then again in the evening... Nancy, When am I gonna see you on a TA ride again?!??
