May you rest in peace, Marco. You were once a King. When I think of Marco Pantani, I first think of a photo from the French newspaper, L’Equipe. On Stage 12 of the Tour de France, along with the rest of the peloton, Marco sits in the middle of the road, his bike next to [...]

It looks like the four corners region is blowing up with some good old fashioned grassroots endurance racing.  Both the Arizona and New Mexico Endurance series have been around for a few years, and now Colorado is jumping on the bandwagon.  The Colorado Endurance Series will kick off with the Durango Gravel Grinder 115/160 on [...]

Ten days. That is all that is left until Gnome, D2, Precious, myself, and a team of 4 sultry vixens head down to the Tucson desert to represent DC at Old Pueblo. I really can’t wait to get the suffering started. I spent a good amount of today riding the course and the trail is [...]

Thanks Mikey.

Dear Boston Motorists, Lets make one thing crystal clear. Cyclists are not slowing you down. You read that correctly, cyclists are not the reason you are not going as fast as you want to go. “But what about when they ride in the street!!!!!11(sic)!!!” No, stop it. Listen. C Y C L I S T [...]

Guz over at T.B.A.G. is kind enough to keep me in  the loop of all the bike action going on in the Phoenix valley. This morning he sent over a news article about a local cyclist that fell victim to a hit and run. “I watched a car come around the corner and after he came [...]

Indoor mountain biking at Rays is supposed to be a lot of fun. Sure looks that way from this video. We’re headed up to the CLE Rays on VD. I can only imagine what kind of damage Dominic is going to do on his jump bike.

We’re often (as a matter of course) a day late & a dollar short around these parts. The recent chatter regarding Landis/Kimmage being no exception to this doctrine of halfassedery. Paul Kimmage interviewed Floyd Landis a few days before Thanksgiving of ’10. Their 7 hour conversation was distilled into Kimmage’s Sunday Times article published yesterday, [...]

Back in September, at Interbike, I drank some whiskey with some pretty cool guys. I only got pictures of a few of them, and forgot almost all the rest. Then a few weeks ago I was pedaling my townie to the pub when I had a bit of a whiskey flashback. It dawned on me that I threw back  some Old Grand Dad at the AHTBM [...]

Today’s ride is Westbound along the Broadway corridor, to points Northwest. The following expert guided trip is the result of many years of ‘figuring it out’ with Tucson’s East side streets. It starts West of Houghton. I do this ride four times a week. There is no avoiding staying on Broadway for some miles and [...]

Alberto has been suspended for a year. Tour de France champion Alberto Contador has been suspended for one year because of his failed doping test during last year’s race, according to the Spanish newspaper El Pais. . . . El Pais also reported that Contador will be stripped of his 2010 Tour de France title. [...]

It snowed again. The shit just fucking melted and we got hit with 6 more inches and freezing temps. I shouldn’t complain. It’s not like I commute, or even have to leave to house to go to work. I have it pretty good, actually. This week was hell. I got a tooth pulled. I payed [...]
