After work stroll: Update 3/19/19
One thing to love about March: I can catch a really nice ride after work with a few hours of daylight remaining. It’s a fun time of year, but also fleeting because the increasingly high sun angle does its dirty work on the exposed areas and roadsides. When I saw this fresh groom down S86 […]
Spring Fling: Update 3/16/19

Heading out of town on S84/Blue […]
