These nuts weigh a ton, son!

Here’s a race report for all you racer-brah-spandex-junkies, or just anybody who likes to ride their bikes with a zillion other funny wierdos. And besides, it all started here, at DC HQ, when i rode as “Drunkcyclist 2″ at the 24HITOP. Before then i was just a happy-as-a-clam XC rider. I hold you all responsible. [...]

I’m still amazed with this az gig. This marked the tenth year the Old Pueblo has been in existence, and it was smooth as ever. Sadow and the Epic crew absolutely know how to have a good time. This year, I did not race, and in fact, only rode one lap on Saturday afternoon, and [...]

The Valley of the Sun stage race is in the books. And it actually approached fun there for a minute… don’t get me wrong…the OP it is not, but it had it’s moments. Anytime you are pinning a number on a jersey that looks like this:

…it can’t be all bad.
Or, if you [...]

Looks like one’s all sewn up down in the desert. The “real time” results are just about set in concrete and finalized now: www.epicrides.com/…24results_live.
I expect the tales will start flowing in shortly.

Tubs ‘o fun texted me about his “race” weekend a 4:45pm yesterday, nearly five hours into the event.

Let the good times roll. Or, in your case, sit. Still, pretty good work for five hours of hanging out in the desert. Two drinks an [...]

the day has been sublime. chilly. sun broke over the cliffs. reveal the flow. no ice. no snow.
dirt on dirt. no frozen toes. pedal on. this winter is as those before. those to come. mundane & sad. gloom. make mad. the turning of the sun. relieve the soul. turn to bros. lift a pint. swallow [...]

Hey Gnome and Big Jonny.  Remember back in the day when Chad was about 4 ft tall and used to gut it out on the round da mtn ride when we were actually racing fit?  Well apparently he rolled off the front of the Tour of Qatar for 100k plus…give [...]

This Saturday night in Tempe at 7PM…. I’m doing the A race… hoping not to embarrass myself. $10 buys you $100 worth of fun.

Dear Big Jonny,
People are going to harass you for years about the bike er, riding, er uh, something or so. It’s about origins right. As if bipedalism weren’t enough, this has to do with “bicyclism”. What us rejects do for our excuse. Something you and I used to do hand in hand, when your wife [...]

Sourced straight outta BKW.

It being, you know, that time of year when folks tend to make their resolutions, I am going to try and do something like that now. It’s early, sure, but why the fuck not?
First, try to take myself less serious. Seriously, my job is stressful at times, and I think I take it too serious. [...]

As the heyday boils back down to “a love of the sport“, all is not lost…

As fair warning and a favor for a good friend, everyone that is, or think they may become afflicted with 24-hour-itis in the coming months, should get going on registration for the 2009 running of the 24 Hours in the Old Pueblo to avoid the first wave of surcharges which is 10 bucks per person. [...]

Look, been out a few days, turns out that working 70+ hours per week puts a crimp in my posting style, and or writing. Ah well, momma said that there would be days, or in this case, weeks like these. Let’s just say that sometimes being an automotive supplier, is, well, interesting. Well, actually, I [...]

Pulled from BKW and in a word, pimp.

Found this. I remember posting something on it a few years back on another site. I think this might be a must do race for 09 but it’s November away. Regardless, Looks like top notch riding out in the middle of nowhere. More details over at BajaEpic.com oh, and there’s no deny’n the sound track…

I made it back up the hill this morning after hanging with local friends in Kleenix just yesterday at the FOTP. In a word, the day was moist. The unusual November monsoon from the night previous, that brought hail the size of marbles to my parents house, provided epicness for the following days ride. With [...]
