Verdugo mountain

Weekly Photo Challenge: Earth

Took this shot looking down from Verdugo mountains to Burback where it is very green and colourful after this winter’s rain.

Saw this little fella (a Fence Lizard I think) sunbating whilst hiking on Verdugo mountain at the weekend

Riding Verdugo – chasing the sunset

You may or may not have noticed that I have not mentioned cycling much recently and to be honest it’s because I haven’t been riding as much.  But my belly is in serious need of control so I am trying to get back into full riding condition.

I didn’t realise how out of condition I was until Tuesday when I decided to ride with a group up Verdugo mountain which is close to me.  

Just think, somewhere down there….

“Just think, somewhere down there….

Up in the mountains again

This Sunday I had time for a ride and so decided to go off-road again.  This time I decided to stay close to home and as I live on the foothills of the Verdugo mountains it seemed the obvious choice.
