I've been away from my blog for a while so I thought I'd hop on and give an update. My last 3 rides have taken me up to nearly 32,000 feet. I had a great ride up Sidewinder on Monday that almost matched my top time of 38 minutes from last year. It's always hard to compare because I have a couple of miles to and from the trail where traffic can really skew your time.
The Red Cliffs Loop ride on Tuesday was a fun ride with Max and Jeremy. This was the first time Max had been out this year and he did really well! He made it up Kestrel without stopping which is impressive for a first ride. I saw a lot of improvement in Jeremy as well. He's getting more comfortable on the trail, which should help his speed and ultimately make things safer.
On Wednesday, Max, Jeremy and I went on another ride together. This time we went up Rocky Canyon before branching off to Shane's. We had a great ride and the weather was great! I think I'm finally getting back to where I was last year. I'm eating better which I really helps. I'm looking forward to some longer rides with more elevation in the coming weeks.
