(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 [...]

I rode my CX bike yesterday for the first time since last November. I thought I should probably test out the bike since I am racing tomorrow. Dominic had the bike all ready to go for me when I came home from work. He mentioned that he put his old 10 speed Ultegra shifter and [...]

We finally made it to Limerick, Ireland for Singlespeed Worlds. After a less than amazing travel experience, Scandinavian Jesus and myself put tires to ground  in Ireland today. Here is a quick rundown of everything we learned in the past 36 hours of travel. Lesson 1: Having a bike that doesn’t fit into a suitcase sucks [...]

The last time I up and left Flagstaff “For Good” was in 2008. During my last night in town, this happened thanks to THE SHINDAGGERS. And: Sometime next week, I will be leaving Flagstaff “FOR GOOD” again to head to Colorado Springs. That means my life is currently in boxes and my bikes are for [...]

It all started out rather simple, Caveman was going to be shooting photos at Leadville, Dirty bought himself a plane ticket to join in the fun and cheer on Snake.  With the next semester of school approaching I figured that this would be my last weekend to get rowdy and opted to tag along for [...]

I got this in February. Really. It was buried in a draft folder for months. Hey, I’ve had a busy summer! I’ll get it cleaned up, I promise. Right after I sort out the garage. Which is an absolute train wreck. I digress… Thought you’d enjoy the billboard that went up across NZ yesterday. It’s [...]

100 degrees + Mounatin bike ride = Coors with ice at 10am Act like you know.

The other night I was hanging out at the ol’ Dude N’ Hug watching Vancouver get the snot slapped out of ‘em by perhaps my least favorite hockey team in the NHL, when in walked the great and noble Gnome. We bullshitted for a bit as the Bruins fans (over)celebrated their victory, and got to [...]

SSUSA went down last weekend in Boulder, CO.  For the proper write up head on over to Mountain Flyer, because they write better than I can.  First and foremost, big congrats to Eszter Horanyi and the dude from Seattle who took the overall wins.  The weekend included seeing old friends, making new friends, plenty of [...]

Another product placement shot. This one from Brad. Yeah I could be riding right now… But Fuuuuuuccccckkkkk that. Long time no talk. Hope everythings good, dude. TN in the summer. Put a little bit of the South in your mouth. Everything on my end is perfect. Done with law school and beating my head against [...]

That’s it. I’ve put in my time and been counting down the hours at work. It’s only Wednesday, but my weekend starts now. Did somebody say ‘Road Trip?’ The wife hates me and I’ll take my lumps when I get home. But now, the Goose is Loose! That’s right, we’re headed to Gooseberry Mesa, Utard. [...]

No, really. I finally got my lazy, beer-lovin’ ass in the saddle. Felt damn good too. Old guy serenaded me after seeing me take a few pics. Good thing, too. I was feeling a bit unloved by that point. Vid: Serenade. (Not sure why it’s not embedding, and I kinda don’t care at this point..) [...]
