That should read “Es is S.I.S.” Schlaflos im Sattel 2010. (Sleepless in the Saddle)
SiS 2010
It was planned as a two-man, nine-hour race. It ended up being less, and yet so much more.
I was invited to take the place of the second man on a two-man team. Cleveland (wunnspeed) was looking for someone and I [...]

Girl on girl MTB race
Once again this is not going to be like Dirty Biker’s 24 hour solo MTB race but Judi’s VERY FIRST MTB race. Yes, somehow I got roped into doing the John Bryan 6 hour as a female/female team with a rippin’ fast CX racer chickie, Nancy. I figured it’d be good for CX practice at [...]
This is a horse you need to know by name
Zenyatta – undefeated female horse. Known to be DFL for most of the race and then comes up and smokes every other horse in the last lap. Sits in until the end. Has there ever been a bike racer like this? She toys with the other horses, flirts with a pre-race [...]
Last of the road races this year…..
I’m committed to racing and working two more more races and then my road bike is going away for a little while.
The first race is this weekend, June 20th, the Ohio Masters road race. Cash prize is 300 bucks to the top 5 in each division. I am going to get my ass BEAT [...]
Get Humped
I am off the bike for 7 days. (that hasn’t happened since sept 2009). Feel free to share your saddle sore story in the comments section. How gross can you get?
So I went running today. At noon. There’s nothing like some mid-day humidity. My run sucked ass. My legs felt like cement. It reminded [...]
Things don’t always go unnoticed
Is this so wrong?
Two top Colorado mountain-bike racers face felony criminal-impersonation charges after allegedly cheating in last year’s Leadville Trail 100.
Veteran endurance athlete Wendy Lyall, 36, used Katie Brazelton’s entry number in the 2009 race, finishing second in the women’s age 40-49 class.
“It probably would have gone unnoticed except the woman who did race came [...]
“two in the blood one in the mud”
#43 I thought it was two in the blood one in the mud.
What a great last comment for the glove post. How appropriate for my post. Had to quote it. Thanks Batwing – is that you Lauren?
This is my PMDD week. It’s very real. For all you guys that are married/have a girlf, you [...]
Taper madness – not so much.
I got an email from the race director for this up coming 12 hour that is in 4 fucking days:
Just a reminder that all racers must have a functional rear-view mirror. It can attach to your glasses, helmet, hand, bike, elbow, earlobe….we don’t care. However…we’re dead serious about this – No mirror…no race.
Are you fucking [...]
April Fool’s Sun
YES! 70 degree weather hit yesterday and with it came the first sunburn of the year.
Praisejesus March is fucking OVER! One more month on my road bike and then mountain bike season will be here! WOOOOT! I think I am tossing out the Tour of Red River Gorge for Mohican 100.
Got some good [...]
Ironman? Double century? Introducing – Katie Spotz
Who has now defined BAD ASS FEMALE to a degree that few mortals can hope to match?
Katie Spotz, 22, successfully rows solo across Atlantic.
Spotz made good time partly because she didn’t face any storms. As she approached South America she did hit strong currents and 20-foot waves, which struck from the side and swallowed her [...]
MMMmmmonday!
Yeah, that should help. Mmmmmonday!
It’s Friday
I’m sick. And sore. I have a cough and am all snotty and shit. My doc called in some cough syrup (minus the hydrocodone). It seems to be helping. A little.
So I’ve missed a long ride this week. Was off the bike 3 days. Who really cares? Is it really going to make a [...]
Roller Derby!
We watched Whip It last night. What a great movie! If you haven’t seen it, and you like to see women kicking each other’s asses, watch it. It’s so fucking rad. Juliette Lewis is still hot.
I totally want to try roller derby. I got invited to try outs a couple years ago for the [...]
Job Well Done!
A tip of the hat and a raise of the glass to the U of A cycling team for putting on an impressive race and for getting on the box this past weekend. David Glick of RideClean occupied the top step in the Men’s A field and former Luna Chix Chloe Forsman topped the box, [...]
