Mountain Bikes

The Carbondale Mountain Fair began in 1972 with 20 booths showcasing local artists and artisans. Over 300 volunteers come together every year to make Mountain Fair one of the most popular and unique fairs in Colorado. With that in mind, a good downhill bike is built to take a serious beating and move fast, but is generally poor at any uphill riding. For the umpteenth time today, she goes to the toilet to ease the pressure on her bladder.

We packed by headlamp to begin a 29 mile waterless stretch across the Hat Creek Rim. After 40 days of grinding labour across endless ice fields, mountains and crevasses, I saw the fjords and mountains of the west coast; by this time we had virtually no food and I knew the feeling of hunger.

G. Band, N. Hardie, J. Brown and S. Streather of United Kingdom were the first people to summit this mountain. One thing that is recommended is to do short rides to start with, maybe only a couple of miles which will take no time at all on a bike to get your fitness training up to scratch before hitting the bike ride.

A team of French mountain climbers was the first to ascent this mountain in 1955. Big Mountain Campground has a rich history of family traditions, scenic views, and timeless nostalgia. Why this is being done is a question for the writers, but it’s fairly clear how this is supposed to be done from an artistic point of view.

Still, we were both glad when we found a dry campsite with a sunset view of Mount Shasta, some red-lit wind turbines, and the peaks of Lassen National Park. So it’s been a little stressful at times and we haven’t had much time to just chill but we have plans for a weekend get away the end of July.
