It has been forever since I’ve been on my mountain bike with the intention of riding a trail! No child trailer attached, no concrete, my hubby and biking partner by my side…it was wonderful!
We just rode Marshall Mesa Trail east of Hwy 93, with views of the Flat Irons in Boulder. It was a stormy sky which added such beauty.
In the distance we could make out the V-shaped opening marking El Dorado Canyon State Park.
And there was a creek near the trail that kept the cattle watered, too.
But what did I like the most? Going fast of course! To be able to zip along the trail and bounce over rocks and feel my muscles working to stay upright with tears in my eyes from the wind. What a flashback for me to those pre-Elizabeth days when we did this traveling. What a hoot and a joy! I can’t wait to teach Elizabeth how to ride the trails, because something tells me she will love it as much as I do. Many thanks to Steph for watching Elizabeth for a short two-hours so we could ride together. Love you.
