Had a fantastically productive week at work and decided to reward myself with a Friday afternoon ride with my host Brian. He's hard to keep up with, but has been cool enough to show me some nice trails... Starting with views from Sally Barber mine then a perfect decent back home on the fittingly named trail... "Aspen Alley".
Made it home in time to clean up and roll back down the hill to catch the last of the beautiful day... The sunset view from the Boreas pass (about 100 feet from the driveway) and kicking my feet up for the last little bit of daylight downtown.
Saturday afternoon I met up with Holly and Andrew (both UNCW alumn!) for a hike up McCullough (coincidentally Andrew's last name) Gulch for some nice lake and waterfall views... VERY similar to last weekend's hike which I totally could have done all over again, but this hike is just one ridge over and just as beautiful.
The best part about living in paradise is that you can sleep in late, make a huge breakfast, read and play guitar, clean the house and still have plenty of time to head out for a world-class ride! Down the ridge into Frisco, around the peninsula and back to Breck on the bike path for about 25 miles total...
