last descend down Mt Vernon Canyon just
before dark. Came home in the dark at
slow speed. Actually the mileage was
89.99. But with four rotations of the
front wheel it turned to 90.

Notes: the ride from Idaho Springs to
the top, on a Mt Evans Highway closed
for the season, was Bob's idea. We
finally met on the top. - Sofar
virtually no snow in the mountains on
this balmy warm day. What a joy to
descend without cars around. The detour
down Snyder Gulch and over Floyd Hill
was my idea. Barely finished before
complete darkness.
