Ariana and I headed down to Moab, Utah for a quick little weekend before hitting New Mexico! We got there in about 5 1/2 hours, rode for two days, then headed 3 hours to Durango to have dinner with Jeni, then a hard push onward to Los Alamos, New Mexico for a well deserved sleep (then work for 2 days...)

If you ever need a mountain bike guide, check out Magpie: http://www.magpieadventures.com/ Maggie and Mike are amazing, great, and genuine! I hope to join them on a tour later in the summer.

 

 

 

It wasn't too warm, but warm enough for Utah in January! I love that desert sun...

 

 

 

My girl was rockin' on her new xmas present! Yup, a bike like mom! That isn't too terrible, is it?

 

 

 

A dash of powdered sugar on them rocks.

 

 

 

Perspective.

 

 

 

I drove out to Arches for a winter sunset.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Ariana still loves rocks! Got the girl, dog, E, bikes, and plenty of sunshine! Only thing missing was the boy...

 

 

 

The next day we headed here...

 

 

 

 

 

 

I heart red desert dirt!

 

 

 

Weeeeee! Rocks are so much fun! It was a glorious January day ~ 40 degree with loads of sunshine.

 

 

 

This was our turnaround point...

 

 

 

Me-n-Maggie! Thanks for a superb weekend! See you in three weeks!

 

 

 

Me and my girl, getting ready to head to Durango to meet with Jeni (who I hope to see more than one time this year!) Like Ari's new streamers...?
