Bobcat, Bear, and Bambi

Brown Mtn Saddle (the start of the Ken Burton trail). After about five weeks, these guys and a couple hundred mtn bikers were all I got. Not bad. But no lions..

I had a nice ride up the road this morning - cool and foggy. I'm new to biking, and the thought of pedaling up there again in first gear gasping for air and looking like a moron who might need training wheels was not very appealing, but it does get easier each time. The ride back is a blast. And now I have "runner's high", which I don't get from hiking anymore, so that's cool!

That's one big ass bear when you compare it to the deer/bobcat.
And its walking right on the trail! I'd love to come around that corner

Reminds me of how much I want a bear. A bear butler named Chiles, who wears a fez, and rides a gokart.

Your videos are magic. Imagine a mountain biker running into that bear.
