I transitioned to Roaming50 from ColoradoBiking to document my goal to travel and bike all 50 states in my 50s. That goal is still ongoing but life changes mean it is on a new timeline.

Also given the fact that I'm not getting the engagement on my videos (let's face it, unless I happen to be in epic scenery most MTB videos are pretty boring) it is frankly not worth the effort. So as of 2022, I have pretty much abandoned this channel. I may come back to it at some point but currently it is not a priority.

Some days the trail bites back and you pay for the stoke days with blood. CamRock.

I realize I am horrible at getting to my videos and publishing. I'm trying to get to my backlog (only going back to 2020 - anything earlier is now in the trashcan of history). This is what I still have to work on mountain biking wise:

2020-08-16 Salida, CO - Backbone, Beasway, Rumba, Cottonwood, Backbone, Sanddunes
2020-08-17 Almont, CO - Doctor Park

2020-08-19 Crested Butte, CO - Strand
2020-10-05 Fruita, CO - 18 Road
2020-10-06 Loma, CO - Kokopelli
2020-10-07 Moab, CO - The Full Enchilada
2020-11-16 Spot Ryve 115 Test (Probably too late for this one)

Also a ton of van content.

I think my plan is to wrap up my August 2020 trip (next part tomorrow), then my NW Arkansas trip, then Cuyuna Lakes and get back to history..

But what do you think?

It's been nearly two years since I rode this and I'd forgotten how much I love this trail. Tomorrow morning Sheep Creek drops..

I removed my recently posted video as while editing it I was missing some in van footage, so the beginning was not that great. Thinking I'd lost that footage I posted anyway. Well I just found it and so I will rework the beginning and I might tighten up the descent as well. I will repost in a day or so.
