Training has been moving well and fitness has been moving forward the last few weeks.  Whiskey 50 was not only the kick start of the race season, but also a good kick in the pants to get some hard training in and keep moving forward with fitness.  The reality that the race season is truly [...]

Lil video from the ride in Nederland, CO with my teammates Chris Baddick & Jordan Williford. We managed a great day on the bike and just ducked the oncoming snow storms. Perfect trail conditions (except for all the trees that were down). Loads of smiles all day long…

 Seems like forever since I’ve really been able to sit down and type something up for the ol’ blog.  Apologies after I’ve literally been on the road  for 4 out of every 7 days for the last 3 weekends.  It’s finally good to just sit home and do nothing.  The dogs are finally starting to [...]

Home…Good ol’ Upstate New York.  It’s not often that I get to pack up and head home for an extended weekend.  I wasn’t originally planning on heading back east, it’s not like I can just jump in the car and drive there quickly.  But, Bridget and Lake had plans to head back for Spring break [...]

Wooooo freaking hoo!  I finally got to put some fat tires to dirt this weekend.  Thank to Alders for loaning me a bike.  Though it was of the little wheeled kind, I was so stoked to get out there and ride. Saturday was spend with Scott Upton and John G.  Rolled a bunch of dirt [...]

Temperatures have been unreal here for March, 70 degrees and perfect blue sky’s.  I’m thirsting for Dirt, like a Heroin addict during withdrawal; I need my fix soon or going to go crazy.  Trails are opening up and everyone else is out riding mountain bikes!  Watching the World Cup XCO Opener from RSA on the [...]

I was all set all weekend long to write about rolling the gateway with Sam & Deidre.  Loading up on extra miles and tackling big climbs afterwards and then reconning parts of the Boulder-Roubaix course… Then I got this picture from my brother of my nephew Peyton and niece Reagan.  It pretty much superseded anything I could [...]

Momentum is continuing on the training front.  The weather has been fairly in favor of training (except for all the crazy wind) and today was a short sleeve and jersey day to keep working on those tan lines!  I’ll happily take that anytime. Like the title implies, training has been going well.  That good feeling [...]

Yes, winter is every bit still here.  Cold temps and steady snowfall over the past week or so have remained.  Everybody is grumbling about the cold and the snow.  I’ve embraced it, it’s really not all that bad.  I’ve dealt with plenty of cold, harsh winters back in Upstate NY and well, honestly this is [...]

Well, Winter finally came to Colorado.  In a big way.  This past Friday saw a big dumping of snow on the front range area.  I was prepped and ready for it though.  I headed up to Nederland with the Steel*Wool gang on Thursday night for my first time ever Skate Skiing!! I’ve downhilled a few [...]
