This is where I live.
Okay. I took this picture from my phone, because I wanted to capture the moment and the beauty of what I saw. I was suddenly struck by a feeling of awe and appreciation. It was Mother’s Day and my husband let me go mountain biking by myself after cooking a pretty awesome breakfast for me. This is the ride that is out my back door and I love it. I passed nobody and did not cross one patch of snow. It was a surprise and a blessing. Other than climbing over a few down trees (as to be expected this time of year after a winter of storms and wind) it was a perfect ride and yet another moment where I have confirmed why it is I live here. Because it is awesome.

Show us more mountain bike pictures! Can you connect us to trail maps or a guide? Which neihborhoods are best for mountain bikers?
