Best, Worst, and Biggest of 2014
For a little light humor I wanted to share what I found to be my Best, Worst, Biggest and Weirdest moments of 2014.
Best
Bike I rode: Rocky Mountain Thunderbolt
Discovery: 3M Scotch Brand Super 77. We've all seen riders abandon…
Shenanigans of Late
It's been a while since I posted anything so here is a photo journal of the last few months. I've been fishing in Maine, cycling in Breckenridge, CO and on the Monarch Crest, which is part of the Continental Divide Trail (CDT), and climbed…
Bears, Singletrack, and Pavement
A while back I wrote this on Facebook, "Every year I say I'm going to ride less and do more hiking, fishing or trail running, anything but riding." So can someone explain why two out of the last three weeks I have ridden over 200 miles, climbed…
Summer is here!
I thought I'd write a little post about what has gone on this Spring/Sumer and get everyone up to date on my going ons. The winter was long and the riding started later this year. After being sick three times and not doing much exercise…

Getting into the Backcountry
On this years Fourth of July I went for a bike ride with my co-workers to Dexter Park. So far in Colorado this is the my number one place to ride. It's everything I expected when I read Mountain Flyer Magazine all those times sitting in…
Ivanhoe Lake Take #1
I love exploring Colorado on my road or mtb bike. The views are amazing and cycling is the best way to see it all. So this past weekend my roommate Nic and a customer of the Aloha's, Wild Bill attempted to circumnavigate Ivanhoe Lake. The…
Settled?
Once again it's been a while since I posted on here. I have no good reason besides I haven't been compelled to write anything. Part of it was it was winter and motivation was low, while some of it had to do with my need for things to be…
