So I woke up this morning and decided to go for a road bike ride before Alivia and Nicole came over my place. In the afternoon Nick Spencer and I went snowboarding at the Basin. Then after riding in the snow Nick and I went for a Mtn bike ride in Vails single track. Wow what a day, I'm ready to Crash.
Me, Spencer, and Nicky got out to A-basin to do some snowboarding today

When I woke up this morning I took Tasha and Peanut out to play in the courtyard. Then I took Ryan and Elena out for breakfast at the Sonnenalp restuarant. We were fueling up for our ride up the Vail mountain with Nicole.

After todays ride Ryan had to pose out on the falls
This morning Nicole and I woke up early to go for a 10 mile hike up in Glenwood Canyon called Grizzly Creek. The hike was a long one but natures distractions took our minds off the physical aspects. After we got to the top of the hike I unexpectedly to a huge fall down a Talas field, only suffer a few cuts and bruise's.
Grizzly Creek was so beautifully powerful
The cliff sides were enormous
The hiking trail was really rocky
Tasha taking a doggy break
Nicole all being happy at the top of our hike
Wild flowers were all over the place
At the end of the big hike I installed Nicoles bike rack on her car for her so she can transport her own bike now.

Nick and I went for a bike ride up Sandstone road this morning. It was Nick's first time on his new bike so he was totally pumped to got out. Later that night Nicole and I went out to the movies to watch MI3. However there was a little tech. difficulty, so we ended up watching Posiden-- which ended up to be like the movie Titanic on steroids.
Yesterday Dan and I worked together in the morning and made a lot of Money!
Shaun M came and visited Dan and I while we were at work. Don't ask but here is a picture of Shaun Crab walking out of the port

Sonnenalp landscaping almost done. Today Dan and I did a little disc golf/mtn biking tour de Eagle. Today was my first time hitting the real steeps of Eagle on my single speed. And all I have to comment is that "it is a Ride times Two" But in retrospect I love the work out and the skill building.

Today was just another day here in the hood. I woke up early this morning and first thing had a cup of nice strong coffee with Nicole. Then I went on my fourth bike of the preseason up Vail Mtn on my single speed. Today was just one of those typical spring dayz with on and off thundershowers.
While I was at work today Len, Tasha, Ryan and Elena went for a bike ride on there new bikes up Vail Mtn to Chair 10.
After there bike ride Len was trying to catch Tasha so he could get all the mud off her Via water bucket.
Len finally got Tasha into the water bucket
Over to our ride to La Cantina I noticed Ryan still had snowboard boot tan line from the last day of Vail Mtn, all because he wore surfshorts!!!!!
After I got out of work I took Tasha to East Vail to play in the Gore Creek.

My dog is not crazy, but in this picture she might look. Today I had spent the whole morning with Tasha at the intermoutain dog park trying to wear her out, but still not to successful. After all the dog bonanza I decided to try again to make my way up the Vail mtn on my single speed. And after the third day try'n I finally found a dry way up via Village trail to Eagles Nest in under an Hour.

Tasha and I woke up early this morning to go for a long dog walk around the Vail Village. I had to take and display some pictures of the village construction to give you all some perspective on this billion doller project of my what I call home.
This is the huge new building called the Vail Plaza right next to the Mtn Dogg store still under major construction.
Here is Lions Head constuction in the making
More of Vail Village mass constuction. This is Gore Creek drive and this drive is just being finalized with its snow melt and pavers

After my long dog walk with Tasha, Nick and I went for a mtn bike ride up Vail Mtn. Our goal was to get up to the top, however we came just shy off the top of Eagles Nest due to snow and mud. Maybe next week!
