Summer days...

Loving these hot summer days, this is really my favorite time of the year, call me crazy but I love being outside when its 90 and above, I feel energized. Joe and I spent a lot of time outside this weekend, on Saturday we went for a nice bike ride in Frick Park and then headed out to Ohiopyle for a lovely hike with our boy Zeus.



Zeus however does not love the heat.



Aaahhh...much better.:)



and ready to go.



We watched the Tour this morning, very exciting, nice to see a Frenchman win the stage. I'm still bummed about Lance but he looks like he's still riding strong and enjoying the tour. Go Lance!



We did some mt. biking at Hartwood acres today and once again it was a blast! Such fun trails, I'm really starting to feel much stronger on the bike as I've been riding a lot more this summer than running. I miss my runs but my foot is not cooperating, I'm just happy to be out on the trails riding.



Hope everyone had wonderful weekend of riding and outdoor fun, thanks for checking out our post!!

Raystown riding


Laura and I went out to Raystown Lake last weekend and rode the sweet singletrack that makes up the Allegripis trails.

 I think we might go back for another round this 4th of July weekend.

Bird in Flite

Oh man I am happy they started selling the Flite saddle again.  I had to do some product testing and go mountain riding with a two strap waterproof tool roll on my Cannondale.
 


No problems were encountered. Although I usually wear a camelback so I usually carry it in there.

But  either way I like Brancussi's  Bird in Space, even though I thought it was called "Bird in Flite"
