Now, here’s something you don’t see too often…
Race Day Morning tomorrow: 10k Skate. Forecast: -10 degree’s. Tough to race in those temps, yet easy call for waxing; Swix LF4, over CH 6 micro scraped, and of course,
c’mon…really? a twenty-minute 2-horse drawn sleigh ride (which were later draped by very hot, i might add, Santa Elves), a meeting with Santa (who was, BTW, up in Durango high country conditioning his reindeers) AND a personal pre-Christmas present direct from MahaYogi Santa?!??!
where else but Durango?!??!
chop wood, carry chi! backyard scene before riding Nalanda (my cross bike pictured above) to teach another AWESOME, AMAZING HP PROP WORKOUT! what’s NOT to love about October in the Durango Bubble?
What’s not (to) Love?
What’s not Blessed?
What’s No(t) Truth?

“…I pledge allegiance to the soil
of Turtle Island
one ecosystem
in diversity
under the sun –
With joyful interpenetration for all.”
– Gary Synder
… it’s actually (today) an hour and seven minute climb to the top of the scintillating, single track, technical downhill section…and that is at my high Zone 3 pace. your actual climb time might be slower (or faster) depending on your fitness/skills. the whole 16-mile route took me 1:35 front door-to-front door.
