SSWC2011 Registration is OPEN!!
Anyone remember the clusterfuck that took place on 1/1/2008 when SSWC08 registration opened up? Hopefully that wont be the case with this year’s registration. The site for SSWC11 is up and running, so you can go ahead and register yourself. 60 Euros looks to be the cost (I don’t follow exchange rates, so I have [...]
Cold. Cranky. Indoor workouts that rule.
I don’t plan on doing a bunch of road racing next year, but I wanted to mention something cool happening for women’s road racing in the IN/KY area this year. Big Dave will charge Cat 4 women only 5 bucks to race the Kentuckiana Spring race series. It starts in March. That’s pretty rad. I [...]
Typical american kid, that aint me.
Newbike!Newbike!Newbike! My head has been wrapped around the new Voodoo frame I am getting next month. A 9′er with front suspension is a nice choice for the Mohican 100, I’ve heard. Who else is doing this race? I am also doing 24 hours of Dino in September. I need a teammate or 3 for that [...]

Rough Ride Turns 20
My apologies to Dirty, in a perfect world his most recent post would be left up with top billing for the next two weeks. Looks like it has been twenty years since Paul Kimmage dropped the “Rough Ride” bomb on the cycling world. I was six at the time, busy spinning my wheels at the [...]
A change in perspective
Amazing what a few years can change. Brian Holm has admitted that doping was a widely accepted, everyday activity back in the late 1980s and early 1990s when he was riding as a pro cyclist but insisted that riders’ attitudes have changed greatly, with doping now being the exception, rather than the rule. He knew [...]
Colorado High School Cycling League
From: The Ethnic A bit of good news, for a change of pace. http://www.denverpost.com/extremes/ci_16314083. From the article: Kate Rau hasn’t exactly reinvented the wheel. But she has taken a popular sport and created a new niche. It would seem the creation of a high school mountain bike racing league in a state such as Colorado [...]
