The Only Published Riding Video (so far)

July 4, 2013 Some days start out well and some not so well. We both woke up early. OK, I woke up and started packing, that might have helped Dendog wake up too. I slept really well. Amazing how the Thermarest (with extra air) protected me from the underlying gravel. We both have good equipment….
