Show us your ride/run! (Page 3)

How did no one else notice this?

Some aerial photos... 15 miles down one way Longboat Key with only 1-2 traffic lights.





Below: This is our "hill".  Not that bad to ride up but doing bridge repeats is puke inducing... The thin stretch of land in the background (top) is Longboat (shown in the top photo)

awesome Susan!  you have been doing some great rides lately.  for those that do not know...this lake is at over 10,000 feet elevation.  and there is a road you can ride (another 13-14 miles) to above 14,000 feet to the top of Evans in the background.

Ha!  Been there many times.  Have you done the climb to the top yet on the bike?  I have... ONCE...  I would do it again now that I'm in better shape.

I've been out training everyday in Vegas and haven't been overwhelmed by the heat. However, I am out there at 5am when it's only 85.

HAHA, I lol'd! I actually use this pic as my "Employees in Action" pic at REI...maybe I'll print this one out and post it there instead.

...but you do know that the monster is in Loch Ness, not Loch Lomond, right?

Yeah but the water was right behind you, in Scotland, close enough right

Great thread! Here are a couple of San Diego offerings. The first is on Harbor Island with a great view of downtown. The next is from the Cabrillo National Monument looking down on San Diego Bay.

Not as spectacular as some of your's, but this is the west plains of Spokane late summer/early fall of last year. One of our favorite training grounds.

Great idea for a thread! I've often wondered how much greener the grass is where other BT folks train... Not much actual green here but lots of sun! The first two pictures were taken in Northern Arizona, at high altitude, where I live most of the time. I also train in Phoenix,  just 2 hours south but whole different climate at the lower altitude!

At the top of Arizona Snowbowl Rd, looking Northwest towards the Grand Canyon, a couple of days ago.




Here's one from my MTB commute, which I log as training since it takes 1 hour each way and is pretty exhausting.




And here is one from one of my favorite running routes, on South Mountain in Phoenix.

Yes, but they are ALWAYS red when I get to them!
 

LOL, yeah more times than not it does seem that way.  Was heading out right now to ride.. then I looked at the radar ;(

Ohhhhh that one is the WORST!

Here are some pics from a ride when I spent the night in Haines, Alaska. I'm in Anchorage now, I'll post more pics later!

Awesome pics!  I need to travel more and ride...

cool video cruise.  But I don't need the reminder of the Three beotches Sistas...

Took that with my cell (Droid), not terrible quality, considering it's a phone. 

OK, posting pictures from AK is just cheating.
