Biking to Chiva Falls

1 Reply

On Thanks­giv­ing day Jenny and I took the oppor­tu­nity to do a lit­tle moun­tain bike ride. I had actu­ally rode out to the falls with Tim and Lance the day before and decided that Jenny def­i­nitely needed to see them.

The one thing I for­got was the fact that I’ve been bik­ing a lot with the guys over these past few months and Jenny is still very new to the sport. Chiva Falls might not have been the best choice of trail for Jenny to go on at this stage. A few miles into the ride she took a spill over the han­dle­bars. It shook her up a bit, but since she wasn’t seri­ously hurt and we hadn’t seen the actual falls, she decided to ride on. I love this woman.

The falls were fan­tas­tic, just like the day before. Unfor­tu­nately, right before we were get­ting up to head back to the car a few peo­ple showed up and before we even real­ized it, they were shoot­ing guns at the falls. It was sur­real. I couldn’t believe how loud it was. I’m not afraid to say that it scared the crap out of me. We quickly gath­ered our things and left the shot­gun tot­ing peo­ple to themselves.

Aaron & Jenny’s Adventures

Jenny and I started hik­ing, back­pack­ing, climb­ing and gen­er­ally hav­ing shared adven­tures sev­eral years ago. I’ve been some­times blog­ging about them at twocentsworth.com, but now we have a ded­i­cated place for them and you must have found it.

I hope that Jenny might grace us with her per­spec­tive on some of these adven­tures, but for now it will prob­a­bly be just me. She’s a busy girl, it’s hard enough just get­ting her out there for the actual adventure.

Our lat­est bit of fun was a moun­tain bike ride on Thanks­giv­ing day. I’ll put some pho­tos up soon. Just like my other weblog, this will be some­what spo­radic, but the good news is that this will be focused on our vaca­tions and trips, even if it’s only a day trip.
