I hate to say it, and I know that there are still plenty of good ski days left, but the sunshine and warmer weather have me thinking cycling season will be here soon. I’m planning on LOTOJA again this year, possibly the Tour de Park City and if I’m lucky, perhaps I’ll ride the 1000 […]

My friend and former co-worker Marit pinged me today asking about how I did in Lotoja. Lotoja?  Well, despite all the mayhem that was my life this summer and the lack of training that followed, I managed to shave an 1:01 off my time from last year.  That’s one HOUR and one minute!  HOLLA!  Yea, […]

A while back I posted a video from New Belgium about their Fat Tire Ale. In the video the guy looks happy, really happy about riding his cruiser that he built. Yesterday it dawned clear skies and cold, but by noon when I went to the rec center for my swim work out it had […]

I’ve been getting ready for Lotoja and riding the Mirror Lake Highway in the mornings has been a great option. People say it’s one of the most dangerous roads to ride on.

I remember a few years ago when the bike manager from Scott sent me a message asking if I’d like to show a road bike film in Salt Lake. I don’t recall the name of the film, but I do recall the questions in my mind like “Would anyone come?” and “How could anyone make […]

I went out for my usual bike ride yesterday morning. The only thing that wasn’t usual about this ride was the companionship of my friend Derek. The thing is, he wasn’t biking but instead brought along his video camera. He was looking to shoot something fun and had wanted to add cycling to his demo […]

I was cycling from Kamas to Oakley through Browns Canyon and then back to Kamas around Highway 248 which passes by the Jordanelle Reservoir when I tried a little detour through a development called Canyon Trails which is all but halted.  Thankfully, not before they got a bunch of the roads paved. It’s a steep […]

I think I rode one of the more beautiful rides of my life today. I’m in Oregon for the week and brought my roadie along so that I can get some rides in. I’ve got a feeling it’s going to be a great week for riding. This morning I left my parent’s house in Tualatin, […]

I don’t care about the haters. I don’t care about the critics. I do care about the cheaters but I still believe that Lance was clean. There I said it, I took a stand, drew that line in the sand.
