My early season birthday ride into the mountains to have lunch with my wonderful Dan. We had great weather and clear roads – hard to ask for more!

Arosa Run/Walk
I am way behind in posting this, but last month Dan and I went to Graubünden, a canton on the other side of the country, to see some snow and mountains. Not that we had to cross the country to see snow and mountains. But we were here for a race!
Hiking at Giw (Visp)
Slowly I am catching up on my postings! Two weeks ago Dan and I took a hike in the Alps in probably the best weather possible. Fantastic views and colors blessed us for the entire day. Come along for the hike – without even raising your pulse 🙂
Hiking to the Surreal
Ever on our quest to hike as much as possible, Dan and I took a trip to the mountains to explore one of Switzerland’s more popular Alpine hikes.
A full day’s ride in Switzerland
WARNING: Photo heavy!
I decided to reward myself with a full day’s ride on fun Swiss roads. The previous two weekends had been eaten by trips on high speed and boring motorways so I decided that today would be MY day. And what a day it was! I saw and did so much – it more than made up for the last few rides I’ve taken. There are a lot of photos, so prepare your internet for the onslaught!
Cherries and Cheese
A new rider and I take a short tour of the roads around Basel, stopping at some local farms for fresh treats.
Hiking in the Clouds
Dan promised that there wouldn’t be rain until 4 o’clock. Dan was wrong. Follow along anyway and enjoy the sights and sounds of Swiss cows!
Hiking to Eptingen
“A short hike” turns into five hours as Dan and I meander through some beautiful landscape in the Jura Mountains.
Rhine Falls – success!
I made it to the falls!!! Without motorcycles with but our feet, Dan and I took the train to Schaffhausen to explore the area around the falls and follow the river downstream for a while. We had fantastic weather and the water was flowing fast and high!
Another ride for lunch
A motorcycle friend and I did a nice little ride along the Swiss/French border to have lunch. Perfect weather and perfect roads!
