0 CommentsGreetings folks. Hope you all are enjoying your year and that the 2009 riding season is off to a good start. 2009 is going well, both for Salsa and for me personally. As you have likely noticed, I personally have been blogging less. That's because I've been riding more. I've got some fun riding plans for the upcoming year. I'll be sharing those adventures here throughout the coming months.
I spent the bulk of the past 6 months riding my Salsa Fargo. Since the very first prototype of the Fargo arrived, I've been peddling and planning a 2 week adventure tour for later in the year. I love this bike. It has seen thousands of miles and provided nearly as many dreams.
Recently however, I've decided to challenge myself a bit more. I decided my adventure would take a different route and would require a different bike. I'm not sure where this newfound confidence has come from, but I wanted something a bit bigger and more challenging. Risk more and receive a greater reward. As such, I've committed myself to do the Colorado Trail in a 530 mile two wheeled, self supported, ultra light adventure.
I'll be riding my Salsa Big Mama. I finished this final build last fall and got a few rides on it. I'm in the process of final set up and gear selection. I'll be doing a tune up trip later this month with a Fruita to Moab to Fruita ride. This trip will involve many hours of riding, lot's of picture taking, and overcoming some challenges. I can't wait. I'll also share my final bike set up on or around that time. I tell you this, it is going to be one sweet Big Mama.
Ride & Smile! Ride more. Risk more.
