BOB FROSTY
IT WASN’T REALLY THAT COLD THIS MORNING, BUT IT WAS COLD ENOUGH TO SLUR WORDS. Brett asked, Where’s Bob Frosty? Who’s Bob Frosty? (It’s kinda early for Christmas… well not really… but still, who or what is Bob Frosty?) Is that the Snowman’s name? No, you know who I’m talking about… the guy in the..
WHY YOU SHOULD RACE NOW #1
RACING MAKES YOU A BETTER RIDER, ALWAYS. Let me show you just one simple way. Tonight I picked up my spanking new frame – more on that later… it’s so purty. The shop put my parts back on, but I still needed to mount a few things: the Garmin, the RaceRepair Bag, and the lights. ..
WHEREVER MY BIKE WANTS TO GO
PETER AND SEAN SPLIT OFF FROM OUR GROUP AT DIFFERENT TIMES THIS MORNING. Each had the same sentiment upon parting, it’s one I share… often, not just on bike rides. Which way are you heading? Wherever my bike wants to go. Peter explained that having no plan is a great way to get to know..
WHAT A FINISH
THE LAST 10 DAYS HAVE BEEN A LITTLE ROUGH. My dad’s hospitalization being the roughest part, and things being a little too quite at the shop. Heading towards Thanksgiving Week I was having a bit of a pitty party… wo is T. Today it all turned around. It started with a video from my sister..
#DONTLAUGHITWORKS
EVERY NOW AND THEN I COME UP WITH SOME KOOKY BODY HACK TO LOSE WEIGHT. Sometimes it’s something I’ve read or heard about, sometimes it’s just the mad scientist in me. The inspirations generally come in the Fall, when the riding is down and the waistline is widening. It’s this time of year when the..
NIGHT FEVER
YA GOTTA BE A REAL SICKO TO RIDE AT NIGHT, RIGHT? I’m not talking about commuting home after a long day working for the man, but rushing home from work – or even stopping on the way home – to throw on the kit and head out into the dark. On your bike. With lights...
TOES AND NOSE
I HAVE TOES, AND I HAVE A NOSE. You probably do, too. Are yours like mine? If my toes are cold, my nose is cold. If my nose is cold, it runs. It’s my body part’s way of saying… Get warm ya big goof, we’re freezing! And, if you’re not careful we’re all gonna be..
BOLD PREDICTIONS
IT’S JUST HARD WORK, that’s all Bro. A super-bike will help, but not without hard work. Good genes are important, but not without hard work. A coach can assess and advise, but it’s worthless without hard work. A book can teach you what to do, but it’s a paperweight without hard work. Getting out and..
REST
I LOVE TAKING SUNDAYS OFF FROM RIDING MY BIKE. Because I definitely have an addictive relationship with my bike, knowing I’m not riding on Sunday has been restful in and of itself. I don’t ever wonder if I’m riding on the 7th day. On Monday, I’m rested and ready to start another great with week..
SAME OLD, SAME OLD
HOW YA BEEN? SAME OLD, SAME OLD. On my ride today, I asked that, and got that, multiple times: with young Nico, French Steve, fast Chris and a few others. It’s cross-generational and cross-continental… but, what does it mean? Is it… I have so much going on I don’t even know where to start… and..
BRIDGES
I LIKE RIDING MY BIKE ACROSS BRIDGES, getting from one side to the other. Little wood bridges, ladder bridges, walking bridges, bridges with cars, I like them all. On the bridge, the sound of the bike changes. The bigger the bridge, the better view of where you’ve been and where you’re going. And then you’re..
