Steamboat Springs Training

Spending time in Steamboat Springs this week visting my parents with Mira and of course training.

Day 1

Easy out and back along river road, still recovering from the Tahoe Solstice weekend.





Day 2

Riding with the family on the Yampa River Core trail. Mira and I sporting the tandem cruiser.





Day 2 evening

Racing the Steamboat Springs town challenge MTB hill climb. 2000' feet in 4.5 miles staring at 7000' and ending at 9000'. About 1/2 up I faded off the back of my group, 40+ local MTB experts, finishing a good 6 minutes off the wining pace to finish 12 out of 16th. My time was 49.26. Tough effort !, but rewarded with 2000' of single track downhill.





Day 3

Around emerald mtn loop, 2 hours of steady state.
