Back in the saddle

I'm back. Back to this blog, back to biking (on a regular basis).

As much as I love music / vinyl and listening to it, I'm not the best authority on what's new and amazing as I don't get to get as much as I would like. So, I've decided to, by suggestion of my wonderful girlfriend, to add another thing that spins. Bikes. I LOVE BIKING! I ride as much as I can. It relaxes me.

My biking history. I've been riding for approximately 18 years. That does not include when I was a child cruising around on my huffy. This is packing up the car and heading to some great trail, wherever that may be. Michigan riding was great single track. Norther California was amazing riding. The most fun I've ever had on a bike would have to be in the foothills of the Sierra Nevada mountains. (Not a bad beer either)

Now I am in Phoenix. I've been to the hills here a couple times. Not too bad. NOT the most fun I've had mountain biking. So, I've resorted to getting out as much as possible on the canal trails. I can really log some miles on them! That's where I am at this point.

If anyone has any suggestions for mountain riding in the phoenix area, please let me know. 
Does anyone else like the new Foo Fighters album as much as I do?
