MBAA – The New Deal…

Just think, only 10 years ago the Mountain Bike Association of Arizona held multiday events sponsored by companies like Budweiser and Canondale. Ah yes, those were the days. Thankfully, the trendy popularity of mtb receded over the decade to follow and riding & racing a mountain bike is closer to the soul again. While the [...]

From: Corey the Courier
At the 2008 North American Cycle Courier Championships in Chicago, Illinois. Although I am smooth as an eel covered in astroglide, I have lost a bit of speed. But then the fast guys are never the life of the party.

Today Was Too Awesome

14 scheduled repairs at 10am. Walk in, try to take it in stride. First custy I help shows the dim bulb response. After minutes of contemplation over combos or keyed locks, he brings up the key version and asks, can you open this so I can test it out?”
I knew the day was on the [...]

SSWC 08 in the books

Since the DC crew is old, and can’t find the time to get out to the sswc since 2002, at least we have things like this to keep us in the loop:

Segways & Bikers Down

This Segway Faceplant made my day. It reminded me of my own, retarded fat-girl wreck last week, of which I’m still recovering and only when I sneeze, do I cry about it. I watched it about 5 times. I hope you get the same satisfaction out of it. And we can thank Chet, my redneck [...]

JRA Crashes, Chinese Ingenuity and more…

Every time I eat shit, I do it in the lamest way possible.
Riding up the urban trail a couple of days ago on the townie to go watch some softball. I was minding the evening sky, looking at the stars and otherwise not paying attention to anything. With no lights, the last thing I saw [...]

Leadville 2008 & Bikers Down

Leadville was off the hook this year, with a fallen record and another win (making 5 or 6 consecutive now?) for Wiens. Nice work to them all, including LA, and especially, the DC boys. Rubelt and Juan layed it down in good style:

Sella Positive for CERA

It just keeps coming… Looks like CERA’s the new dope du jour. The fucking retards that are getting caught is surprising. Perhaps they’re too close to the fire to see how obviously careless their actions are.

Randini Rolls Norte

Randy does what he wants. That makes me, and hopefully many of you, want to know “Where’s Randy?“. At least, that’s the case from here at “DCHQ”. We know the man. We’ve watched him grow up, and we’ve watched as he ascended the ranks of AZ & southwestern cycling with prime natural talent, only to [...]

Mob Of Bicyclists Injure Motorist In Seattle

UPDATE: Mis-reportings of this incident wound up in both the kirotv.com news report linked below, and the Seattle TImes. Apparently, the douchebags reporting the news up there in Seattle are the same as everywhere else and, “have to get to work somehow” and so vilify the cyclists, to which I was caught, hook, line & [...]
