HOW TO PRETEND IT’S NOT A BIKE VACATION.

THE FIRST RULE OF BRINGING THE BIKE on a vacation is key.  It’s not hiding it the back of the van or car, and it’s not saying…

… I’ll only ride if the amazing doll house tour falls through.

Rule No. 1: Make sure the important stuff is the priority.

Today, that meant a 3.5 mile hike out to Observation Point.

Fully appreciate it’s awesomeness.

Hike back 3.5 miles,
loving it.

Even if you have a nice blister brewing,
because you never hike or wear these shoes.

Follow that up with plans to grill up some dinner at sunset.

Once everything is taken care of…

… totally cool to check out the sweet local single track.

Exactly how my day went.

Perfect.

The single is a new addition the land here near my grandpa's cabin, which is the only reason a lugged the bike up here...

... to give it a more thorough inspection in the morning.

The view down into Zion Canyon

One of my favorite things is my folding fire pit.  Folds down, easy to travel with.

Found a place to do pull ups.
