Alright, my fellow followers of the Two-wheeled testament, this is the semi-(totally not)-official thread for posting two-wheeled shenanigans of all types.

Epic MTB trip? Post pics.

Gravel century? Show us where you went!

Lolo Pass on a sportbike? Let's see them curves.

Rode the TdF last year? Lycra Pics or it didn't happen!

Anything goes, so long as it involves two or three wheels, wind (and possibly bugs) in your face, and memories good or otherwise.

 

The trails around teh Recon homestead have been drying out and we've had some beautiful days; a perfect combination for tuning up the climbing legs!

This is a good idea!  I did the PA Wild BDR X loop last year, and wish I had somewhere to put pics!  Looking at possibly doing the chatahoochie loop this year.  

Here are a couple pics from last year's ride

Nothing since last year, but I'm heading up to Oak Mountain in a couple weeks. 

I did get the new bike nice & dirty today though.

I will have a full report in July.  Heading to snowshoe mountain in July for an annual 5 day mountain bike ride with my racing friends.

 

We used to race w2w racecars.  We decided riding mountain bikes was cheaper and more fun!  

Get on a bike and have a good time whatever your pace is.  It's fun.

 

As an aside, I have been coaching my 8/9 year old daughter for the last year.  She is now up to riding about 7 or 8 miles at about 6 mph and challenging everything she comes across.

I love riding with her every week.  She is starting to get pretty good through technical sections!

Awesome thread idea! As a lover of two wheels, human-powered and motorized, I look forward to seeing what others are up to and hopefully posting some of my own adventures.

Made it to Oak Mountain yesterday afternoon & took a couple short rides, but I headed out this morning for a ride around the outside loop of the park. 
 

Coming from sea-level flat terrain it was definitely a challenge, but also really fun. The trails here are great, and there's so many of them - which is both good & bad: the good is you're almost always going to find your way even if you don't know where you are, but the bad is there's so many trails it's easy to not know where you are...
