Nice ramble with a couple of friends

After work yesterday I met up with a couple of buds and hit a little ramble action around Busch Wildlife down the Hamburg to the KATY. Stuck mainly to bike trails in Busch, they are grading many of the roads and they need to be beat down a bit by the autos.  Keith and I met Sarge Stitz at the social log and turned the pedals to the tune of 30 mixed surface miles.  I love my cross bike because of its versatility.  The KATY had seem some flood waters from the Mighty Missouri.  She had deposited some mud and sand on course so we had stretches of bumpy surface but all tree damage was cleaned up.  Temps were great and it was nice to be in the saddle for a couple hours with some company for a change.

Nothing new to Report

No ride again today. Rain by the time I got home for work. Maybe in the morning? Weather this year has been a bit disappointing from a cycling perspective. Rain or cold most of this spring. Summer is officially almost two weeks out. My total mileage for the year is beyond minimal. Lost Valley Luau is this weekend but I will probably sit it out. We are busy waiting on a new baby boy to join us. Maybe ICC 9 hour duo? Who really knows? Leg still gives me fits as I have yet been able to find some kind of rhythm.  I have been, more or less just cruising, or rambling as I call it, around my 'hood.  I never want to be to far from home in case the boy plans on arriving sooner than later. Had a nice night ramble with Davis the other night over to Dad's Bottle Shop in LSL and then cruised all LSL and watched the lake waterfall over the spillway. Good times on two wheels.

Morning Ramble


Went on a ramble this morning through Busch Wildlife.  The cut is pretty good. The entrance near the bridge is the worst spot, well, under the bridge it is the worst spot. The grass is just tall and encroaching while the mid under the bridge is a little peanut butter like. Oh well. Here are a few pics
