The Wedge (aka Goodwater)

What’s in a name? Ok, I’ll skip the Shakespear and begin my love affair. Love affair with a name? If I could figure out the actual name of this place, I’d probably inscribe it on the back of leg. When we researched the ride, Goodwater seemed to be the common name, then we saw the BLM sign which said The Wedge, then the Little Grand Canyon, and so on. I’m sticking with The Wedge for reasons you’ll soon read about.

I had JCOS Patrol refresher training today, so getting an early ride in was out of the question. After finishing up at 12, I stopped by the bike shop to pick up some lube and find out if Stu was still out (he was demoing a bike). Turns out he was and I thought he was going to White Ranch. I figured I’d try and catch him on his way back down.

We decided on Heil and Picture Rock for today’s ride. The morning started off ok. It was warm, the sun was shining, but by the time the guys had stopped at my house the weather was changing. A couple of drops, but North looked ok. So, off we went. It was cloudy as we headed up Wapiti. The climb was nice, there were plenty of people out and about, but we should have known changes were afoot. Keith left his helmet at the car, so he went back. Stu and I continued up to wait for him.
Patrolling the Sistahs

And yet another beautiful day in Colorado. After spending a week in NJ, I really needed to get out and breath some fresh air. What better way than to combine riding and giving back a little to the people who maintain our great trails. Love them or hate them, we are lucky to have access to some of the best dirt in the world.
