I've been mountain biking in the Land of Enchantment for 7 or 8 years and until yesterday I've never ridden past a lake! I suppose that's because there aren't many lakes here, and the few we have are in wilderness areas where bikes are banned (grrrr). But yesterday the gracious Greg de Taos was kind enough to lead a ride to Lost Lake, somewhere between Red River and Taos. What a fantastic ride it was! Around 3K feet of mostly mellow climbing to a gorgeous alpine lake with killer views all around, and a rippin' descent back to the fine IPAs waiting at the trail head courtesy of CDaddy. And the icing on the cake was the fish tacos on the way home.
A fine day indeed.
Unfortunately our gracious host went OTB and suffered a palm bruise that made braking difficult. But as we say, crashing is just part of the fun!
The talus slopes kept CDaddy honest. As if....
one more.....
Thaks for looking!
