Tri Cime di Lavaredo: 1974 Giro d’Italia
Seen on trackosaurus rex… I can olny hope that when I see the Big Bear Climb of the Tour of California that there is this much screaming and shouting! Take notice of the guy at the 6:28 mark elbowing people as he runs along side of the rider.
Rules of the Road, Brought To You By Rapha
I have seen this before, in bicycling magazine I believe, and find it very useful!

4. Keep it over your hat
The arms of your sunglasses should never be tucked underneath your Winter Hat. Nor should they sit under the straps of your helmet. Espressos cannot be consumed otherwise.
Last Ride as a 29 Year Old
I just finished my last ride of my 20’s. Now it time to stop playing around and take this to the next level… gulp. It was a good ride, and the reason I say that is because after 25 miles I felt like I could just keep going! What a great way to go into my 30’s. Now I need to start doing rides that 30+ miles routinely.
New Route to Work
I am having a hard time motivating my self to ride after work (not a fan of riding at night), so I am considering trying to put a few extra miles in, in the morning. So, today I tried a new route to work to extend my 5 mile ride to a 7 mile ride. I know it doesn’t seem like much but it was fun going a new way and dealing with new drivers.
This was a lame post, sorry.
Team Radio Shack, Training Camp
Thought this was kinda funny. The music made it work for me. Don’t judge!
Stupid Life, Always Getting in the Way
I planned on doing a training ride tonight after work, but I have feeling that it is not going to happen. This week at work is going to be crazy busy and the same goes with life outside of work. In addition to all that stuff, I feel like I am starting to catch a cold! WHY ME, I have already been sick 2 times in the past 2 months! Hopefully tomorrow or Wednesday I can put some miles in. Stay tuned for more, kid-o’s.
Here is my total for my 300/30 goal (starting 12/31/09):
186.27 of 300 miles (63%)
Saturday’s Ride to the Farm
This past Saturday, I rode out to Joe’s Farm Grill and The Coffee Shop to meet my family for lunch. I couldn’t have asked for better weather, but I did ask for better drivers. I actually had a scare when a dumpster fell off a guys truck and rolled into the road. Luckily for me it rolled into the median and not into the bike lane.
The ride ended up being 33 miles and I did it in 1hr 45mins. I am actually pretty happy with this result, must have been the coffee I had afterwards.
January 6th 2010
Did a night ride after work. I was wanting to put in 40 miles but the route I picked ended up being 30 miles. I was was too cold and hungry to do more, however I was not too tired (which is a good sign)!
