There is nothing like a good rally stage to get the blood pumping.

Default There is nothing like a good rally stage to get the blood pumping.

Yesterday, I turned the ESP off and tore up Guardsmen Pass. The asphalt section was fun, but the slides in the dirt section were even better. It reminded me of Pikes Peak a few weeks ago with all the hairpin turns. I stopped at the top and hiked up a few hundred vertical feet to 10,000ft mark on Jupiter Peak.

At that point, I jumped off the peak under my paraglider and I was hoping to land in my back yard next to Swaner reserve. I came up short and had to walk a few miles home.

Later in the day, I hitchhiked back up Guardsmen Pass to retrieve the car and got second down hill stage to end the day.

I'll be leaving any day now, but if for some reason I am still in town, I'll be there.
