Hey, welcome back and thanks for visiting again. 🙂 I’ve been trying hard to do something different this year by posting something every month. I mean, it really hasn’t been THAT hard, and I like to do it…so it will probably continue on this way for the time being. But as it turns out, I […]

Hey everybody, thanks for coming back for a visit. It’s appreciated. Hunker down and get comfy, this is quite the story, and there are some amazing photos…a lot of ’em. Enjoy. OK, so I will jump right in. My friends Dave and Daniel and I started planning a camping/mountain biking trip about 5 months ago. […]

  Well, shit. Seriously, holy shitha. (said like Belushi in Animal House) you know, when they accidentally killed the Dean’s horse. ‘Member? It happened. I would’ve never, in my wildest dreams, thought that it’d happen to me, but it did. Actually, hold on…if I could be honest for a sec….in the back of my head, […]

  All right, here’s the deal…and you’re probably not going to like it. You know what, I know you won’t, I guarantee it. But just so you know ahead o’ time, I’m NOT sorry about it. I’m not. I think we really need to bust this dialog wide open. So, are you ready? Are you […]

Hello everybody! Welcome back. And speaking of coming back, I would like to thank you for doing so. You know, for coming back to read this blog. I am beyond shocked and I am so grateful that so many people enjoy reading the piddly words I write here. I am humbled and very appreciative. Thank […]

Hey all, thanks for joining me again. I thought maybe I would do something different this time, something that I haven’t really done before. I thought maybe I would just show off my Surly Long Haul Trucker a little. Ya know, just talk a little bit about it but mostly share some of my favorite pictures of […]

So funny, right? That iconic phrase that Nigel Tufnel spews to Rob Reiner’s character, Marty DiBergi during an interview about his custom Marshall amp. Remember? Nigel is so proud of the fact that every other musician’s amp only goes to “10” while his have that extra something, that little push and go to “11”…You know […]

Hey everybody! Hope you all are having a great first part of 2017. I know I am! I thought maybe as a little goal for this new year, I would try to get a post done every month…how does that sound? I mean, don’t hold me to it but I will try. OK, the pressure […]

I’m all verklempt. Well, here we are. The first blog post of the new year. Exciting! And whoa, what a shit show of a year 2016 ended up being. I mean, seriously!  But I won’t get in to that right now…or ever, not here at least. This is a place to discuss bicycles…the thoughts, memories, […]

Hi, again. So I did it. I kinda, well…not really kinda, I just did it, OK? I gave in to a market trend. I was going to say that it’s not really a trend to kind of save me from eating crow, but it really is. Although, in my defense, I think it has way […]
