Mooseknuckler Cycling Alliance

One in from Lukas: We are throwing a bit of a throw down here in Southern Utah. The likes of which have never happened before. We are trying to get a desperately needed mtb organization up and running and are having our kick off event the Friday after Interbike. Attached is a flyer for the [...]

$30,000 Cash Purse at 2012 Whiskey

(Las Vegas, Nev.) Sept. 13, 2011 – Imagine one of the largest one-day cash purses in mountain biking history. Sinuous flowing single track trails though the Prescott National Forest. Live music. Southwestern hospitality. And the history of cowboys, miners, gamblers and brawlers who put the “wild” in Wild West. Blend together. That’s the recipe for [...]

Ride

I got out a few times over the last week or so. These pics are at least 10 days old, but what the hell. Spent a little time on my fixed Fondriest. Sure, it’s hotter than all hell here in Phoenix. But, if you get up and get at it, you can enjoy yourself for [...]

Nine Eleven

Ten years on, it hasn’t gotten much easier to get my head around the brutality and tragedy of that Tuesday morning. I’ve been blogging on this website long enough to show you what I did back then – I over-wrote the main html page so that all that displayed was this: http://drunkcyclist.com/archive/gallery_wtc.htm. Today I got [...]

The driver of the truck fled the scene. The truck was spotted a short time [...]

Louis Aimar

I don’t know a lot about this guy, but the image speaks volumes. He was a very hard man. Just look at the pins! He was a French Pro from 1931 through ’46. The War years. I’m sure there are some stories to tell. Some success on the road and a National Champion on the [...]

Eddy Merckx

This guy had swagger before parents of the newest generation of swag merchants were born. (See OFWGKTA.) Eddy Merckx is the end all and be all of Baller. The music is a bit much, but the video footage is great. Some clips taken from here: Jorgen Leth’s Stars and Watercarriers (1973 Giro d’Italia). http://baltimorehorsescycling.tumblr.com/post/1226704298/pearlvelo-the-greatest-a-great-montage-of-eddy.

Feel good hit of the summer.

My summer pretty much looked like this. No shit, 80 hour weeks. Stress was supreme. I came out of it weighing less than I did in high school. In a word, it was grim. Snake texted me one day and said, I need your street address, and nothing more. A few days later, I get [...]
