There have been 10 of them since I rolled across the U.S./Canada border into the state of Montana. I haven't missed one yet.
Monday night "intervals" up Mount Sentinal. I wait for the temperature to drop below 90, and rush full-throttle into spectacular golden light.
Reach the peak just as the last sliver of sun slips below the horizon. Cool breeze and warm sky.
Tuesday after-work ride with the Dirt Girls. We squeeze a couple hours between thunderstorms on a little mountain amusingly called Mount Jumbo.
The fast Arizona visitor wants me to take her picture with the "Big Sky," so I have her take mine.
Life is pretty OK right now.

That is some beautiful country, made for bicycling.
ReplyDeleteGood for you Jill. Enjoy your new begining.
ReplyDeleteAwesome, Jill! I am jealous you have girls to ride with...I have almost none here in upstate NY. My bff lives in SLC whenever I visit she gets a group girl dirt ride together - it's amazing fun! Good to see you're enjoying Montana!
ReplyDeleteyou sound pretty okay! your photos continue to be AMAZING!
ReplyDeletePretty cool......dare I say it-is that *sweat* on your forehead in one of those pics?
ReplyDeleteI bet the temperature adjustment is something to get used to.
You sound happy again, and your pix are still amazing. Thanks for showing us your world!
