Freeze Warning and Fire Watch

Climate Change is Real

We had an ice storm the other day

The weather has gone to poop around here. High winds, fire watches, and freeze warnings – Oh My!

My new ride on the Western Rim Trail

I rode the Western Rim last year on the Huskie Adventure 450 and I suspected it would be more fun on an ebike – I was right again!

The Western Rim Trail on a cloudy day

There are a TON of people camped out in the desert now. I saw a cute little guard-bull on the Rabbit Valley road

I saw this dude standing guard on the Rabbit Valley road
Slick Rock! This is on Mel’s loop. It’s the only good part of that ride. The rest of it is deep sand 😦

Mel’s loop is a moto trail and I’ve ridden it a couple times on bicycles. The part of Utah it’s in is mostly deep sand. It’s less busy than Moab or Fruita, but there are still peeps camped out there

My new ride!

I got my new bike a couple weeks ago. I’m liking the 27.5 x 2.8 tires on this bike. Rolls over a lot of things my 26 x 2.3’s can’t tackle. The motor makes it way more fun too!

Easter Sunday on the Wrangler trail

The Easter Bunny was out hiding eggs on the trails and I found one! YaY!

Mikel and I rode the Ribbon Trail again

Polly, Kai, and Mikel swung thru Fruita last weekend and we re-rode the Ribbon Trail. I remembered all the kewl parts and forgot all the parts where we had to hike-a-bike. Took the wrong steed, have to remember to take a 25-pound bike next time

Check out the “scoops” over the roof vents. That’ll blow the fart smell out of the bathroom

Sometimes I see the strangest things in this park. Vent covers on backwards is a first though. Later the owner went up and changed them around so they didn’t get ripped off

Sign of the times in Rangley Colorado

I took a little drive up to Rangely on a rainy/ snowy day last week. Cute little town built around ranching and the oil patch. Seems the oil boom let go and then COVID kicked the legs off the stool. The True Value and the Family Dollar are still open. The Italian restaurant was busy at lunch-time, but a lot of main street is vacant store-front

He’s sound asleep 🙂
