Mountain Biking

My latest hobby is mountain biking.  Some co-workers helped educate me a bit on biking, and this spring I took the plunge and invested in an older, but still good, bike.  It has full suspension, which comes in very handy on rocky foothill trails.  Co-workers Colin and Shannon are part of a Thursday night riding group, which I have also joined... sort of.  I don't like loading my bike in my car and buying a bike rack is not a priority for me right now, so I only join them when they ride at the Military Reserve, which is right around the corner from my apartment.  Here we are on a recent ride, surrounded by gorgeous fields of little purple flowers...
