Ridgerama

I joined newly weds Greg and Michelle's flight today and headed up Windy Pass from Spruce. About 1.5 hrs hike a biking and some riding to get up there. But such an awesome view from the pass.

I decided to head across Eldorado and camels pass and go up and do Ridgerama. They decided they would join me with their dog Lucia too. So we had an awesome sweeping ride over High Trail then left onto Taylors pass and at Eldorado we turned right along the Pearsons Trail to Camels pass- it was a bit shaly and tough to stay on the trail without slipping the big loose descent to the left.

Once up at Camels pass we hiked up to the peaks and pedaled along the ridge, what an incredible view everywhere. Descending into the meadows Greg punctured and we debated the best portable pump values before climbing up North Cinnabar and taking the 60 mins decsent down flowy flowy sandy singletrack of Volcanic pumice all the way to the Lake at Tyaughton.

We were back 8.5hrs later and had a few drinks in the bar together before I went to Daryls campfire party at Gun Creek Campground to say farewell to the German housekeepers Esther, Nadine and Matthias.

What a day- new friends, great ride and a party!
