Last day here in NY. Nothing like heading out for a nice ride on the frozen tundra. Short but sweet, managed to get in a workout and stay off the trainer. I did manage to fall once on the icy roads though and crack my elbow pretty good. Hurt like a mother. It was solid [...]

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 [...]

Temps were on the upswing today after the cold and snow blast we received in the latter part of the week. So what else was there to do than, grab the cross bike and ride up to Gold Hill? Trails aren’t dry enough yet, roads have a little slush in a few spots, so the [...]

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 [...]

Saturday The sky is falling? We got a little white stuff on the ground here and the temps have dipped a little over this weekend and required the busting out of the winter gear. Saturday, I installed the fenders and headed out for a short cruise on the road bike to loosen up the legs [...]

It snowed here yesterday, got a few inches of the light fluffy stuff. Luckily though the sun shines bright and most everywhere the snow melted and the trails were dried up fast. I hung around till about 11:30 waiting for it to warm up a little bit and headed out the door. First though I [...]

Finally hit the dirt this past weekend. Been quite a while. Yesterday, headed over to MPH. Casey, Val, Mark, Suzanne, Jim, c-dog and lizzy along with myself put in a few miles before the trails thawed. Since the paragon has been pulling double duties, a quick wheel swap was required in the am and I [...]

Spent the past weekend on some solo adventures. All in all a great weekend of training. Would’ve liked a bit more time on Saturday, but the Ol’ man winter had made up his mind. Saturday, I put in just over 2 hours of brutality. It was 30 degrees with 30mph winds. Pretty much every backroad [...]

Headed down to Corning yesterday with the Geneva Crew to meet up with the Hollow Crew. Jer-Bear had pre-scouted some roads and terrain for what would shape up to be an “epic” day to say the least. Temps were great, sun was shining; perfect day to be on the bikes. Group climbs out of the [...]

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. [...]
