Triple the Rad – Danny and friends.

Thanks to Gypsy for leaving this link in the comments section. I never tire of watching this kind of riding.

It’s amazing how life can change in an instant.

I created this post last weekend. I never posted it because I had a few things to add, and then, as I mentioned on Tumblr, my niece moved in. So, I have been busier than ever, not working full time. I have way more shit to do and less time to blog. I am riding Read the full article…

Spun out, Solo

I needed relief from the maddening chatter in my head. No longer can I drink a glass of wine, pop a pill, do a bong hit, or pump poison through my veins to shut my brain up. I find my relief on a bicycle. I have time for a 2 hour ride. I kit up Read the full article…

Day one of the Tour, day 45 of bar prep

The Tour started today. I’ve been too busy to watch it. And I’ve pretty much resigned myself to not following the race this year as I have in years past.

BMX girls are hot.

Fast forward past the 2 minute mark to get to the good stuff. Why in the hell they have to show them eating breakfast and getting their hair cut is beyond me. Best of: 2:35, 3:02, 3:17, 3:43, 3:59, 4:03 and 4:23 are fucking rad, and 4:47.

Mohican – sub minus 5 days.

What I’ve been doing, in preparation for the biggest race of my life, is a lot of mother fucking riding. I had 4 weeks in a row of 200 miles or more on my bike, including thousands of feet of climbing. I put in 20 hours the week before last, when Gnome came to visit. Read the full article…

This guy takes a hit like Lance Armstrong’s career.

Rider Down: Mike Tag

Rider down. Not from a car this time, but from cancer. A few weeks ago, Mike was diagnosed with Lymphoma and is currently undergoing intense chemotherapy to try and beat this thing. Tag is one of the original members of FBM Bike Company and his aggressive riding influenced an entire generation of BMX riders, myself included. Being from upstate Read the full article…

12 hours into the 24 in Old Pueblo….

While Dirty, D2 and Gnome rip it up in the Old Pueblo tonight, I thought I’d post a few links I had saved for a while. In the meantime, just got a text from Dirty: “the 40mph wind is killing me”. * Updated: 5:58pm (AZtime) DB posted to Facebook: “Sitting in my truck trying to Read the full article…
