Christmas ride
#1

Sometimes at Christmas we have enough snow for skiing... No ski this year, but we have warm enough weather for enjoying a nice ride!

First stop after one hour touring around Grenoble : Saint-Bernard du Touvet, small village in Chartreuse


Going farther toward Chambery, we got a glance at Mont-Blanc (50 km away, but good visibility today)



Only problem, on the way back we had the sun just in front of eyes, very low on the horizon. Had to stop for a while, waiting for the sunset.


On middle of this picture, upper buildings, a ski resort (Prapoutel)... but no snow on the tracks... we have to wait still a little bit.

'sometimes hard to compete (as if we truly are), but I just went out for a late afternoon ride down to the river's spreading spans of grassland, palm trees, birds, cows, and peaceful bliss to end a wonderful day. 'stay long enough to absorb the beauty and get some great pics of the CB, especially as the sun starts to get ready to lay down for the evening. I like how my mods seem one with the bike's design. This should be recognizable from my profile pic. You can deduce the wx report from the pics.

Thanks, but the majesty of nature and a CB was enough! I'll jump there for a quick 5-15 min whenever the mood hits. It's so close.
