Just came of a near perfect weekend.  Temps were gorgeous all around every day (and actually getting even warmer today).  Decided to hit the road on Saturday and ride up Lefthand Canyon all the way up to Ward.  Last time I was out here, I had ridden the climb a whole bunch, but actually haven’t [...]

Wow, what a great (but crazy) weekend just had here in Colorado.  I took Friday off from work & spent some time with Lake.  It was his spring break week off from school.  Decided it would be a great guy trip to head up to the mountains and spend the day at Rocky Mountain National [...]

Sunday, was another day on the dirt. Just couldn’t pull myself enough to hit the roads. Fire was still burning up Lefthand and it was too cool to go up high. Really didn’t feel like going to Carter Lake… Did what any good mountain biker would do! Headed out for some more trails. I rallied [...]

Saturday, I hit the local throwdown Gateway ride.  I’ve not hit this ride up since January of 2009!  Been working on the fitness a bit and finally had a chance to roll with a good group.  If I was back home in NY, I’d having been lacing up the cleats for the spring Giros.  Alas, [...]

Never managed to get the rain that was forecasted for Sunday, thus heard some reports that Devil’s Backbone in Loveland was in awesome shape.  I was in desperate need of a dirt fix.  Weather here has been pretty golden, but with the snow that we had the trails just weren’t quite yet ready.  I last [...]

EDIT: Videos never attached from my phone…. Probably too much for one post… But here it goes. Short simple and sweet version: Bought a new Superfly 100 Elite. Super stoked to be back on a dualie (HUGE THANKS TO THE CREW AT GENEVA BICYCLE CENTER!!). The thing is so cushy, but as snappy as my [...]

WTF even gone when I wrote his post…. As I just had it all typed out and disappeared!! Grrrr! Now for the short and pissed off version. Managed 5th overall and 3rd age at the Singletrack stampede. Broke my chain on the 1st lap & then next lap, busted up my front derailleur. After a [...]

I figured since I have it, I might as well share it.  Here’s my power data from the 1st lap at the Hardcore 24 this past weekend.  I ended up winning the lap and the $100 prime in a 2 man sprint against Park Ave’s Rob Pilato.  It was an epic battle, probably one of [...]

Quick report & full post coming later. Was suppose to be 4man, but changed to duo due to fears of a weather repeat if last years monsoons. Casey & I manned up & got ready to rip. Raced my ass off & won the first lap. Gave everything I had and won the 2 up [...]

Took another good opportunity to go back down to Naples again this weekend.  After putting in a killer night ride in this past Wednesday with Casey & Hanggi, where we ripped up OCP & Cutler in the dark.  I figured putting in a little more time and keep burning in that HardCore 24 course.   [...]
