Day 26: Crazy rides

So I went exploring on the bicycle yesterday afternoon. I regret that I did not bring my bicycle as there is tons of good riding around here. Too late now. Anna arrives in a week and we will tour around and then only two weeks of nose-to-grindstone to get "something" to consider an accomplishment while I am here. Anyway, back to the bike. I rode up the road past the institute which then goes into a slot canyon. They are building a tunnel or have a tunnel planned in the future to get through. However for now it is a nice cruise up and a pretty ripping downhill. Then I ventured to the north a bit before turning up another road. I suspected that this road would do much the same thing and end. However, this road climbed up and up, much like Little Cottonwood Canyon. I kept telling myself I would go just a little further. Between the fact I was on a cruiser bike and wearing flip-flops, it was difficult. And I left the battery at home...

Unfortunately, I also left the camera at home...

So this morning, I hopped on the bike to ride to the institute and this passed me:


















How crazy is that?
