It has been an exciting weekend, and to think, it’s not even noon on a Saturday. The fun began last night with a party at D Echo’s photography studio, Straub Collaborative, where The Helio Sequence rocked the faces off of a 200+ audience of Portland creative folk… It was ridiculous, Seriously! Between the music, kobe [...]

Jay hooked up another super rad video documenting this past weekend’s Cyclocross race, which was the first Cross Crusade of the season. In the end, thousands of people showed up and Guinness had 3 riders in the top 10 of more than 90 starters; Garren WON, Jay took 8th and I rolled in at 9th. [...]

In short, it was a weekend full of debauchery, questionable athletics, cyclocross and, on a more spiritual note, true love. Wait…that’s not to say debauchery, copious amounts of alcohol coupled with bicycles and a guy in a speedo isn’t spiritual. Never-the-less, here’s what went down, in chronological order of course:
The weekend kicked off with [...]

What if The Shining wasn’t a “masterpiece of modern horror?” What if it was a story of trial, tribulation, success, failure, more success and then ultimate happiness? I’m sure it wouldn’t be a good movie, but the trailer’s flippin’ brilliant.
Thanks for sharing, Mikey V!

That’s the only way to explain today’s Battle of Barlow Cyclocross Race, CHAOS!
After two solid days of rain I woke up knowing today’s cyclocross race was going to be a flippin’ mess. Actually, that’s not not entirely true because I don’t entirely remember waking up this morning. Why? The evening before saw copious amounts of [...]

So I got a few emails asking where I’ve been during the past week. Actually, I got one email and, needless to be said, it was from my mother. Anyways, it has been a pretty crazy week. Not crazy like me getting married, having a kid or catching a deadly virus, but crazy in the [...]

Well, it’s the moment y’all you have been waiting for…The verdict of today’s race. Put simply, today could not have gone much better than it did. Actually, it would have been best if I was able to go on a solo breakaway to make up the mere 35 seconds keeping me out 1st place in [...]

Well, I’m off to sleep now, but thought I’d give those waiting, once again, by there computers a quick update. In short, today was another successful one. I road a smart race and with the help of my dedicated teammate, Jay, road to a 3rd place finish [see podium pic]. Jay’s stellar performance bumped me [...]

I meant to post this last night at Day 1’s end, but fatigue set in early so I put it off until now. I am sure all of my readers (Mom, Dad, Aunts and a few others) were waiting by their computers all night. That said, Day 1 ended in successful fashion. The day started [...]

Like most weeks, this one is shaping up to be another busy one. However, like last week, this one will be cut a day short when I take off a day early for an extended weekend. On Thursday night I depart for the mountain town of Bend, Oregon where I will participate in the Cascade [...]

Yesterday was an exciting day, to say the least. Why? You ask…Because Le Tour de France kicked-off with a short prologue time trial in London, England…Don’t worry, it’s normal for stages of le Tour to take place in Franc’s surrounding countries. After one more stage in London, then another in Belgium, the 3 week long [...]

This past Sunday was the Oregon State road race cycling championship (say that 10 times fast). We couldn’t have asked for better weather during the 96+ mile suffer festival-it was warm (around 80) and sunny, though, at times, difficult to stay hydrated.
In short, the race was a success. Some big names showed up-Aaron Olson (from [...]

I am going to keep this one short and sweet. Mostly because I’m not the happiest bee in the hive. So, no suspense, no lead ins, just the meat and Potatoes.
I went into today’s stage 3rd on GC. Jay was 8th. Needless to be said, we were both sitting pretty. Everything was going as planned. [...]

This morning’s individual time trial was excellent. My plan from the beginning was to go fast and that’s what I did. I finished fourth out the ninety men who started. Which catapulted me from tenth to third place in the General Classification(GC). Jay finished about 20 seconds back from me to take twelfth-he now sits [...]

The Elkorn Cycling Classic kicked off today with an 89 mile road race. In short, it was arguably one of the more difficult races I’ve done. I was uncomfortable from the start, primarily because it was in the high eighties and the sun was shining like it was going out of style. As a result [...]
