the time has come to get back to cycling.Don't get me wrong, I love snowboarding and the snow. Being up in the mountains is awesome, and hopefully I can move up there one day. I mostly rode the local mountain, which is Bear mtn. here in lovely SoCal. I did get the chance to ride Mammoth and June mountain a handful of times which was great. June is an amazing mountain when there is fresh powder and I am stoked to report that pretty much every day I rode June, there was powder. Finally, I got to go on my first-ever winter vacation. Yes, over the years I choose to save all my vacation time for summer activities, however this year I got out to Sal Lake City for a week of snowboarding. Some people will think I am crazy but I was genuinely not impressed with the snow and the riding up there. Still, it was a good week.
I decided to pick up a XC bike, more of a trail bike actually. It seemed to me a good time for me to get back to my roots of sorts, just ride singletrack and have fun. I decided on a
Cannondale Rize and I could not be happier. The bike rides well and is a nice balance of climbing-ability while still being pretty good on the descents. Anyway I took her to Noble canyon for her first real ride and was impressed. As of now I am waiting for the rest of my parts to come in so I can complete building my DH bike and get to business.

You're not cool these days if you don't black out the name on the tires with a sharpie...
