Rizing up

Today Jim and I met up with our friends and employers Chaz and Claire for a fun mountain bike ride. I have not been on my mountain bike since Easter sunday. It felt great to fly down the ridge trail again. The whole time all i could think about was how im doomed and will just be back at square one. I didnt start feeling comfortable until our descent down Ridge to Marsh. Now im sitting at home feeling great. Im going to play it safe and see how i do over the next few days and possibly shoot for a ride on Monday.

At work, we have a new demo program available for the 2009 Cannondale Rize bikes. On of the many perks is being able to take these bikes out and really get a feel for them. I first rode the Rize last year with Aaron 1. That was the bike the turned me to the dark side. I own the Rize 3 and love it. It climbs like a beast and descends ever faster. I do miss my 29er though.... I have included a map of the ride courtesy of Chaz and his Garmin.
