Some days it’s nice to take it easy and sit around, today I didn’t want to do that but Jane did. Simple solution: have her drive me out of town and then ride back on the Buffalo Gap/Maah Daah Hey. It is 15 mile section of nice single-track with rolling hills and features including switchbacks, climbs, vistas and plenty of scenery. Enough said, I’ll let the pictures speak for themselves.
Though I did ride into a field full of “cows” until one stood with longhorns and demonstrated he was not a she. I lumbered along quietly, uphill hoping that the standing would be the end of his curiosity. Fortunately, it was, but just as I realized I had turned my back on a large animal, I rode past a tree and spooked two pheasants. Or, should I say, they spooked me. I almost fell off my bike off the trail downhill into the sage, and my heart didn’t settle for at least 10 more pedal strokes laughing at myself.
Recall I was ten miles in and climbing when the boy-cow stood up…

Nice Benchcuts, many were steeper but too fun to stop
