Friday night: Sean and I hop in the car and drive to Moab, arrive at about 11:30pm, eat Burger King, sleep in the car.
Saturday Morning: Rode the Amasa Back trail (a local favorite), I fell and scraped my knee... and then endoed and bashed my knee. OUCH! But kept riding... it was so much fun! Oh and I finally got to use my new mountain bike... it was sweet. I'm going to take off the stickers and put on a new one that says "Sledgehammer." Look at how sweaty we are! Yancy's hair is amazing.
Saturday Evening: Rode the practice loop on the Slick Rock trail. Sean worked on his trials skills... he's a champion! Slick rock riding is a lot like riding on concrete... its very unforgiving when you crash but you can climb almost anything!
Sunday: Slept in as much as possible... did some bike mechanics, read the word, eat, eat some more, then Sean, Yancy and I went to Arches National Park and played around. Look at all the dirt!
Monday Morning: Rode the Slick Rock Trail. I had to bail early and walk back because the knee that I bashed on Satuday was hurting too much going up hill. So I learned how to ride Moab with one leg. But the rest of the guys had a good time tackling some wicked climbs. This pic is of Sean charging up "The Wall"... the second time!
Monday Afternoon: Drove home.
All in all, a great trip. Don't think I could ride slick rock everyday, but it was well worth it last weekend. I think we might go do a tour of Arches on road bike in a few weeks... but we are safely back aside from a few scrapes and hurting knees. Can't wait to get out and ride again.
