It’s nice to live at the bottom of a mountain.

Cold, lots of snow, closed roads, fun.
What do you do when the cloud cover is at 3000 feet? Cycle up a 4000 foot mountain.
My mountain behind home.
This is just a wonderful route. All the roads are well surfaced, deserted, scenic, and often uphill. Although, I need to write to the local mayors to install some missing Col signs.
I love having a mountain in my backyard.
I am trying to get myself motivated for climbing in the cold. Actually, the climbing is fun. It’s the descents that can be awful.
