The Riding Continues....

We've had a warm, dry first half of November and as a result I've been able to savor the riding while it lasts.  Nothing too epic, just a few late season climbs up Butterfield while the road is now closed to traffic (love it!) and a few group rides with the Infinite team.  We had a storm over the weekend and that should help conditions up at the resorts but we need more.  Snowbird opens in 2 days and I'll take my kids up for our first turns of the year.  For the first time I think they are actually excited to do this but it could be they're just excited to get checked out of school.  Meanwhile, here in the valley we're in between storms and today looks okay to get ride in outside.  Below are some pics of the past few weeks:

Group Ride with Infinite Racing Team

November 7th, 2013 - Butterfield Climb.  It got too snowy for my road bike just after the real steep section about 4.5 miles up.  So I turned around and did it again.  It was so nice without cars.

By Saturday, November 9th, the snow had melted on the road and I was able to go to the top.  

My bike at the top of Butterfield Canyon.  They have it all barricaded at the top and bottom so vehicles can't go up.  Makes for lovely riding.
