Firstly, I hope everyone had a most excellent Christmas. That Santa brought them whatever goodies they wanted. While we were stuck here in Colorado for our first Christmas away from family in New York, it was still an enjoyable day. Great news & congratulations to my sister & Sean who are expecting!! In case you [...]

I’ve not kept up on the blogging front, but I have been training! You might just call it stealth mode training I guess nowadays. As everytime someone goes on a bike ride apparently there’s suppose to be a blog post with pictures and powercharts/tweet/or facebook update. (I’m guilty on the twitter/facebook thing as it’s just [...]

Weather didn’t looks so nice today for a bike road. Besides, every now and then you gotta switch things up and keep things fresh. With that in mind I headed up to the Eldora Nordic Center to put in a solid 4 hours on the xc skiis. Trails were groomed, temps were perfect was looking [...]

My Article on Power Training comparison of Mt. Bikers vs. Road is posted up over on Bike Radar!! Short and sweet, but loads of snow here in Upstate NY. Nothing to do but bust out the xc ski’s and have some fun. Yesterday was solo over at Glenwood with Lizzy. It’s amazing how calm and [...]

Man, let’s see 35+ hours in my car, 34.9 of them having been spent dealing with snow or blowing snow of some sort and the last 5 hours of the trip spent in Buffalo, NY. The danger zone of all danger zones for winter weather. I made it, no trips in the ditch, but can’t [...]

The past few days have been quite cold. There’s still a bit of snow on the ground and in my never-ending quest to stay completely off the trainer, I’ve strapped on the xc ski’s a few times and even hit the gym. This week is a rest week for me so it pretty much works [...]

Brrr… temps in the single digits. Hoping it warms up here in a day or two. Seeing as I’m stuck inside; here’s some good youtube. I don’t want to be a pole vaulter!! For Sarah who rode a 48 hour mt bike singlespeed race on a broken pelvis and didn’t know… XC Ski’d yesterday for [...]

Today was the first day to break out the xc skis. The few inches of snowfall and the cold temps are only here through today, so I had to utilize. I don’t think I was even on the xc skis at all last season. I know that the Lizzy girl was certainly happy to get [...]

Past few days have been a big block of training. Weather has been tolerable enough to get out there and get things done. Thursday, I busted out the skiis and did some am xc skiing at the local golf course. It was a bit chilly, but tolerable and managed a quick hour prior to work. [...]

Winter is back with a nice little treat these next few days. Guess it’s time to bust out the ski’s possibly the next few days. I’m actually excited a bit about a little bit of a change of pace. I hope the rain holds off though…… Not that things are getting tough, but It’s winter, [...]
