brushy peak regional preserve
For 2015, I have no immediate plans or specific goals but something may pop up later! For now, I will continue doing what I normally do-that’s ride, ride, ride and ride some more. I’ll explore new and less traveled roads and always take the roads well traveled! Michael and I will roll out in our camper and take on some new cycling adventures; there’s always more to see!
Recently, I’ve also taken up hiking around the local regional parks with our adopted rescue Staffordshire Terrier mix-Shadow. She’s a wonderful addition to the family and a loving companion.
Set your own cycling goals/activities and see where the roads lead………Have FUN-Be safe & be seen!
