Today was a hiking/biking day for the gang in Moab. Some hiked at Dead Horse State Park and some bike what ended up being the most technical and probably most fun ride of the whole trip, Gemini Bridges.
mmmmmm . . . nine old guys all taking the same photo . . .
. . . but what a photo as we see part of our route of the last 4 days from above.
This group was making a new wall in an area most of us were happy not to get too close! Tough job . . . but someone has to do it!
Part of the White Rim Trail we biked over.
At this point, two of the group went hiking and the rest of us headed for the 24 mile Gemini Bridge downhill. A rock and rolling technical downhill ride.
Riding towards the La Sal Mountains and the Lil Canyon single track trail.
BillyB heading over the top of the rise . . .
Let’ boogie . . .
. . . well maybe not that fast!
. . . top of the world!
After our hearts stopped pounding from our run down Gemini Bridges we took the 13 mile paved trail back to Moab. BillyB says good bye to the trails of Moab . . . until the next trip!
One last time to load the bikes . . . and disassemble at the condo. Clean up and off to supper at the Desert Bistro.
A gift from the Chef . . .
A delightful pear walnut salad . . .
Gaylord’s salad wrapped with cucumber slices!
Greg’s’ gourmet mac and cheese with pheasant sausage.
Rick’s gorgonzola encrusted beef tenderloin . . .
Gaylord’s bison with chipotle pepper!
How about another martini, Tom . . . ?
Let’s all have a piece of Bailey’s Irish Crème cheesecake and call it a night. Sweeeeeet dreams!
