My house, my ride, my kitchen, my garden…
Glad that I did drive all the way to Granada and Badlands by car. Took my time. Rode some short loops in between on the way and am especially happy I scouted parts of the Gorafe desert already the Wednesday before the race. This gave me not only the opportunity to experience it in sunshine and below a blue sky but also just take in the place, stroll along and explore.
Like those living caves I found and show you here. That one is a pretty barren and bare bones one. And it’s right next to the race course! The vista point of the last photo actually isn’t. So many stunning details and grand vistas alike to explore in the Desierto de Gorafe!

Karin and I rode the Bangtail Divide Trail on July 13, 2006. There's several ways you can ride this trail but most people probably climb up some gravel road and double track that meets up with the trail about halfway, then they'll ride down the amazingly fun northern section to get to the Brackett Creek trailhead pictured here (at this point they will be all happy smiles, no doubt :) From the trailhead, they'll ride their bikes on the road back to their car. Based on the official trailmap, that's the Grassy Mountain trail.
Karin and I decided to go out and back instead, we started here, climbed about 2000 feet and reached the doubletrack. We then continued up the trail (which on the official trailmap is called Olson to Stone), rode some really fun sections and some others that were more atv style through clearcuts. We turned around a while before the trail started going downhill towards the southern Stone Creek trailhead. Going back, there's some ups and downs until you reach the summit from where there are some 1500 feet of awesome descent. We had a blast! :)
Connecting the new track the old mains. This project was to remove a section of short single track though a slide prone area. We removed an old bridge, widened the ROW, installed a box culvert, and now BNSF is adding the double track.
Heading into a big snowshed. Donner Lake in the valley. Snow getting
heavy.

The last shot of the day taken from the road bridge parapet to take a shot of something I couldn't see. I guess I got lucky.
The fake brick platform (it is poured concrete with a brick pattern) gleams after a severe summer thunderstorm has passed through.
I rode up to Cathedral Park in St Johns for this week's coffee outside. From there I headed south to the Portland Farmers Market to get my breakfast burrito from Enchanted Sun.
As always I took a mildly circuitous route through alleys — some paved and some unpaved doubletrack. I rode some singletrack, sort of, through former industrial areas and even passed through a Superfund site.

Rockin some really fun rough doubletrack/singletrack through Huntington State Forest! (Day 4 of a 4 Day Tour: Starting on top of Mt Everett and rambling east with a whole lot of dirt and some rough state forest double/singletrack back to Northampton. 100 miles.)
we found the whole of the garburn loop a bit overrated. all trails are doubletrack paths of varying degrees of looseness without any real flow, and the scenery doesn't compare with the more alpine stuff on display elsewhere in the lake DC.
Description:
"- The DBX 162 is a legendary compressor that l use to make the whole music mix from stage sound very tight, as if it's packed together in a small electronic space and wants to come free and therefore its pumping it’s way out. lt puts a lot of energy in to the sound".
“ - The Eventide Harmonizer is an electronic tone-bender. ` I use it as an effect to add a double identical twin to Benny's piano. Björn's acoustic guitar or Agnetha and Frida's vocals. l can then turn it slightly off the original pitch so it sounds like a doubletrack, only it's instantaneous! Very ABBA!"
Not a cornfield meet although it did happen in a cornfield, double track and both trains are headed east, DPU and another train catching up. This was almost a really nice sunset shot with the sun between two trains. Unfortunately the trailing speedster closed the gap just before both moving trains lined up with the sunset just off to the right of this view. August 10, 2023.
