    Justin and I decided to go run a trail we used to frequent quite a bit when we were in High School called the Charlough Gap trail. It is an easier trail that runs from Catalina Arizona to Oracle Arizona.

    Justin (with Jessica) and I (with Lin) started on the Catalina side. We got to the top and headed a bit down the back side and decided to turn around because of the hail / snow still coming down. There was snow at 4200 feet.

    All in all a good time. Much enjoyed and I am glad my rig has seat warmers...

    Awesome pics! "Easy" trail rides are often just as much fun as the crazy stuff. The scenery itself would have been worth it. I really wanna get out when I visit that area -- if I ever figure out when the hell it's going to be.

    nice we should meet up sometime for a run.

    I finally got my new motor in jeep, took it out this weekend with no bump stops (was to danm eager to test it) just putting around some easy stuff and blew out both rear shocks lol.

    So once i mount up my new shocks and bumpstop/limit strap it we'll be good.

    Sweet! Tonya and I were in Oro Valley camping at the SP 2 weeks ago. We were biking on the 50 year trail, both from the SP and at the end of Golder Ranch Rd in Catalina. The Santa Catalina Mtns are beautiful, would love to go back.

    Good mexi food at Nico's on LaCanada!

    The Catalina State park is a few miles from my parents. Back when I was riding everyday I would ride to the park and run the trail and then ride home.

    I need to buy another bike....
