Draper: Better Trails

Posted on March 1, 2017 by ehurst

“Better” is a relative term here. I went back to finish the trail I rode partially way back before the bike crash. It’s just about passable in a vehicle with a decent clearance. As you can see in the first … Continue reading →

I’ve been riding this week. The rides weren’t remarkable. Indeed, I went out mostly for the exercise, having no particular complex questions in my mind. I took only a few pictures; these were rides I’ve taken before dozens of times … Continue reading →

Walking: The Wash

Posted on February 8, 2017 by ehurst

It was pretty warm by the time I got out on my bike — 70°F (21C). Somehow I knew this wouldn’t be much of an adventure, and I didn’t run across a single place that called my name. Still, I … Continue reading →

Posted on January 30, 2017 by ehurst
