Ruts
Like life itself, when you find yourself in a rut on your mountain bike, it’s very easy to keep looking at the trap you are in. Ruts are tricky, hard to escape. If you stay in the rut you risk great peril, crashing usually results. You must change your focus, your vision. The body follows..
Dirty 30 Pre-Ride, Post-Ride
The Dirty 30 is a really fun course. And it’s hard… ’bout 1400′ of climbin’ per 9 mile lap, with a fair amount of single-track. Pre-riding a race course – like we done today – can give ya a huge advantage on race day… ‘specially if the promoter likes yer idea of a little race course..
I Hear The Chains A Spinnin’
I hear the chains a spinnin’ They’re rollin’ ’round the bend And I ain’t seen the gruppo Since, I don’t know when Been stuck in Workin’ Prison And I keep getting dropped But that gruppo keeps a-rollin’ Long after I’ve been popped.

Tell Me Whyd?
Today – oh, I wish I had my own picture – we cruised past this gal that had bars so wide on her MTB she looked like a bird with huge wings spread out. There’s a guy we pass most Tuesday mornings pretty much takes up an entire car lane… bars are so wide we..
Hero vs. Zero (dirt)?
Oh man, it’s raining. Can’t wait to hit the hero dirt, and shred (insert your favorite trail name). It’s gonna be so tacky, like velcro! Let’s go tomorrow… How do you know if it’s Hero Dirt or if riding it makes you a Zero? At precisely 10:55am today I snuck over to my local trails, Sunday’s..
What If?
What if I always rode my bike to work? What if I always rode until I met someone new? What if I gave my bikes away? What if I bought a new bike every year? What if I only rode alone? What if I did a group ride every day? What if I only rode..

Weather Or Not
I never check the weather until the first day I get caught freezing or melting. Not gonna lie (my kids always say that and it makes me wonder…), it’s nearly always perfect here, 72 and sunny. However, on my bike commute to and from work I get away from the coast, and this time of..
Technology Matters
What do crazy-light carbon wheels with ceramic bearings and my new toothbrush have in common? My new toothbrush is amazing. It cost 10X more than my usual purchase. My teeth feel like a fresh cleaning from Dr. Day’s. Exactly how my new wheels felt in ’15 – so slippery and clean and fast, fast, fast. They were..
This Old Truck
Ever been on a ride and noticed something old for the first time? My town, well the part I live in, has tons of cool old trucks… so that was my goal today – takin’ pics of people’s treasured rides My favorite is my friend Bart’s – “’63 GMC and over a million miles on it.” Not just..
