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 [...]
I got RAAM’ed.
One in from Legs
Keep’n in real in the Springs, baby. Washed and ready to ride. Get at ‘em, son!
SSUSA
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 [...]
As seen in Tennessee
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 [...]
The Goose is Loose!
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. [...]
Far East Report
Our boys Response & Pistol Pete are seeing the world. And, keeping it real. So, me’n Pistol Pete are cruising our piley rental bikes down the seafood boardwalk. Odd open air BBQ fish joints with Russian menus and cheap plastic tables spring up along the seawall at night. We are sniffing the savory sizzlings of [...]
I too got on a bike…
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..) [...]
Phyxed for a day.
Yesterday I rode my beautiful fixed geared bike for well over 3 hours. Dominic switched out the gearing to be a tad more appropriate to ride from the house. I can spin my legs out on the flats and still be able to climb the hills home on the 42×18. I wore the appropriate fixie [...]
Inspiration All Around
The alarm went off at 4:30am yesterday and I fumbled my way to the tea kettle to press myself a nice strong cup of coffee. I wasn’t up this early go to work, or even to ride. I was branching out and heading down to the town lake to watch some friends compete in a triathlon. [...]
Pereira Bike Contest
I hacked Gnome’s email account and came across this one: Gnome, Hope you get a chance to post this on DC…it’s the link to the Tony Pereira bike contest for Bates. The event we held last Saturday for him was off the hook. Good people, good music, good bevies…everyone won something…Jeff and family were blown [...]

Cincinnati stuff going on.
Mohican is less than 5 weeks away and I don’t think I’ve ever felt this unprepared for a race. Even going into the Ironman, I knew I could make the cut offs. The Mohican is, by far, a much harder goal than an IM, and perhaps at this point, unobtainable. I’ve only been on my [...]
