MTB on the ropes?

We all love a good fight. Mountain biking’s in one right now. I’m not ashamed to identify myself as a mountain bike racer. That’s ok, a lot of good things come out of racing. Carbon frames and components, wide diameter fork stantions, 29-er wheels, and stable platform rigs have all gotten their starts in the [...]

And so it goes

While we’re waiting for returns, you all can enjoy this recording. It’s old news, but too good to leave off DC after all we’ve seen. What’re we gonna do for fun when this debacle is over? Palin punked And some sad stuff, but i’d appreciate… Could y’all send thoughts and love to the family of [...]

early results: DC puts stamp on L-ville 100

So far so good. Here’re the sub-8 hombres: 5. Extreme Juan 11. Snake 16. Silverman We can all hope for a race recap from Snake. They don’t get much better. Oh, yeah, Wiens beat LA by 2 mins and crushed his own record by 13 mins. Meanwhile, back at the ranch, the Crazy 88 unfolded [...]

“All those cyclists”

Here’s an article we’ve been waiting years to see: It’s got the usual “bikes are the problem” element, geared to motorists, but it’s more skewed towards cyclists than most articles. Maybe that’s because it’s from the hippies at MSNBC? But in the months since motorists began pedaling in droves, it has become clear that all [...]

Trail Redux: how to quiet dissent

Gnome’s post sure got a lot of Flagstaff attention lately, especially from people not usually associated with Drunkcyclist. It was clear from the moment i read it that it was going to get some panties in bunches, because he went right at a few topics all at once. and he didn’t flinch, blanch, or mince [...]

The Kinlani Fat-Tire Circumnavigation

Update: Ride cancelled due to snow. It snowed 6+ inches at the Flagstaff Nordic Center as of midday Friday, with more due in last night and today. that’s down at the lodge. From experience, i know that the higher trails at FNC can get twice that… so were’re looking at 8-12 inches up on Hart [...]

Sunshine and Bran-muffins

There are days when things come together. And some days when things get so strange, you know it will come together, because it can’t not. Know what I mean? This weekend was one of those times. The Mormon Sensation and I rolled up to Cortez CO to do the 12 Hours of Mesa Verde, as [...]

What a weekend: in the books

Can you believe the bike gods have blessed us thus? Must have been Jonny’s birthday. (39 comments for 38 years? What’s that, one to grow an inch? Trust me, he’d have to rebuild the doors if he got any taller.) Every once in awhile, the stars align to provide us with a full schedule of [...]

Tuesday Bunk

Since Juan Grande is a sick man (did anyone ever doubt it) somebody needs to step up around here. Damn. Looks like you’re left with me. So last weekend we learned how they say Stallion in Switzerland: Cancellara. That man won it old-timey style. I was a proponent, for awhile, of dirty racing – i [...]

Enjoy your dinner…

It’s been so long since i’ve posted i’m surprised the site remembered me. My bad. After enough beverages, i wanted to share this “morsel” from the NYTimes: Mr. McCain traveled from Dallas to the White House for a hot dog lunch alone with President Bush in a private dining room off of the Oval Office. [...]

Drunk cyclists don’t have this problem.

19 year old steals truck, goes on bender. Refueling’s a bitch. he ran off, losing his shoes, and was later found under some bushes behind his home. at that time he blew a .165. sucker.

Biker Down

More fathers of two month olds being hit by drunk drivers. Concord NH Monitor… Sometimes i wonder who’s winning the war; the cars sure win every battle. Other times i just want to crawl in a hole. This is one of those crawl in a hole times. peace.
