Bartlett Lake ride, again!
#1



Had coffee with the gang at The Grotto in Cave Creek then wandered up to Bartlett (between more law enforcement presence and gravel on the road from a recent gully washer speeds were well within the sane limits).

In the 60's when I left the Grotto and pushing 80 when I road home with no breezes to speak of, very very pleasant.

I was looking for wild flowers to photograph and I also wanted to get to the top of a hill that was several hundred feet higher than I had reached before. So included a few landscape shots to give you an idea of the scale. Smile

For starters; here is my ride to the lake.
[attachment=1130]From my previous personal high there is this saddle then a steep climb to the top, it's a ways. Smile
A view from the top.
This shot shows the road way way down there. Smile

Thanks Ferret! Been a while since I've ridden the new V7 but it had major grin making mojo.

Now I really want to ride a 1400. Have not done that yet.
