Metallic Silver Sport Touring Beast. This bike has the power to get me out of trouble, when I encounter caged idiots. It also handles like a sport bike, so it delivers an enthusiast type ride when I want to rip through some turns.
Marmot Rd. on the first leg of our Mt. Hood loop. Mt. Hood is peeking over the hills in the background, but there was too much haze from central Oregon forest fires that day to enjoy a crystal clear view. Marmot road provides a very scenic ride, but the road can be rough in spots and it has some very tight switch backs here and there. That is my buddy's Diavel, another road eating beast.
