Strung Out
One week in ABQ, 4 straight days of riding. One day of ENDLESS whoops, 3 days of single track, uphill, downhill, sidehill, over hill, under hill, around hill,
hippie commune in the middle of nowhere, KX250, KX500, sand, sand and more sand which I suck at, glorious wide open stretches for MILES. Did I mention the views?
2 'fall overs' too slow in the sand,
, one respectable fly over the handle bars crash JUST short of some nasty cactus (in the sand), Lottaburger, green chile sauce, lack of oxygen, stunning scenery, bone dry sinuses, junipers, cookouts (chicken takes forever at altitude) uncountable beers, downtown ABQ, Sandia peak (NO oxygen!!!) hike in the snow, did I mention the views?
Oh yeah. End of day three. Running from the tribal po po. Out of the wash, over a hill, across the school parking lot, down a side street, into the river bed, up the arroyo, back home through the back door, hide the bikes, nothing to see here. Totally NOT befitting my position as father, husband, business man, upstanding citizen, lover of cats...
The boys told me later it was up to a grand and they take your bikes. Nation unto themselves. They make their own rules.
Yeah, I had a great ####ing time!!!
