We rode the Weiser River Trail this weekend from Evergreen Campground to Galloway Dam near Weiser, Idaho. Karma was our shuttle driver and brought BoBeau and Hank along to keep her company on the drive home.

The riding crew consisted of Jay Stevenor, Tucker Anderson, and Myself. Clancy brought his Xtra Cycle, Tucker used panniers mounted to a bike rack, and Jay and I towed trailers. I was towing a TW Bents trailer and Jay was trying out a Bob trailer with suspension….

Below are two videos from Eric Parsons. These guys are doing some epic mountain bike trips in Alaska using Surly Pugsley Mountain Bikes with ”Large Marge” rims and tires, and Alpacka pack rafts. I keep coming back to this thread on mtbr forum about their trip. Trent & Shelly got me a new mountain bike trailer this year from TW-Bents. I like the trailer because it can carry quite a bit of weight, seems durable and has the added benefit of being able to fold up and be stored in its own drybag. The drybag is contoured to the shape of the trailer so it can be used to transport gear. The only drawback to this trailer is that it is made in Taiwan & I would rather support a trailer that is made in the USA. I am already planning my next mountain bike adventure for this summer!!

Trent and Andrew and I went for a ride last night. Karma took this photo before we left. We all have lights mounted to either our bikes and/or helmets. The city lights were beautiful from the foothills at night. The trails were in perfect condition & to top it off we had pizza at LuLu’s after the ride. While were at LuLu’s everyone’s cell phones started ringing at the same time. My cell phone rang also and it was Karma. She told me that they had announced that Barack Obama was officially our new President Elect. I will remeber where I was at and how it felt to hear the news for the rest of my life.
