    Just got back from a business trip out west. I drove from Austin to San Francisco and back. I
    temporarily hired two of my riding buddies to help out with the event and we hit the road.

    The first ride was South Mountain in Phoenix:
    anthonysloan.comSouth Mountain, Feb 2003.html

    Then Montana de Oro: anthonysloan.comSan Luis Obispo, Feb 2003.html

    Then Soquel Demo Forest outside of Santa Cruz:
    anthonysloan.comSoquel Demo Forest, Feb 2003.html

    And finally Sedona: anthonysloan.comSedona, Feb 2003.html

    There is some great riding out there. These were four fundamentally different rides. I honestly
    couldn't say which one was the "best".

    Great pics! Its been awhile since I've done much business traveling, but I always enjoyed getting in
    a ride as part of the trip. Makes the whole trip worthwhile. A change of landscape in and of itself
    makes a world of difference.

    Great stuff, Anthony.

    Sedona looks incredible (I've been there once but it was before I started riding). We're doing the
    "24 Hours of Tortuous Tucson" this weekend, but will be too wasted and pressed for time to add any
    excursions 🙁

    I think it will be wet.

    I'll probably take the singlespeed out.

    Nice, Bill

    The mind serves properly as a window glass rather than as a reflector, that is, the mind should give
    an immediate view instead of an interpretation of the world.

    Thank you.

    I think that's one of the nicest compliment's I've ever been paid.

    I try to hold the torch high.

    Though some may hoot with derision, even a jeep road can be cool if you've never seen it before.
    Travel is the best.

    Thankee,

    Sedona was quite nice. Well worth hitting. Good luck in the race. I almost got together a SS team to
    do that one.

    an excellent piece of s/t - hardly surprising yer always up for a ride eh?
