my bike in the woods and after a muddy ride
riding is even more fun with friends + lovers
liz and I have been having a ton of fun in the trails by our house, they are pretty rough and super adventurous
this was a lovely day, with lots of gravel and dirt and leaf-covered silliness.
this was a snowy day with some slipping and sliding and lots of fresh cool air, great for breathing
My friends Brian and Althea just bought a house wayy out there and we did some fun exploring + hike-a-biking on some crunchy trails
