Look at our So Cal Cyclocross Event Coverage Section for the latest reports and results I am receiving daily as these fair weathered racers are out battling the cold, ice, and storms of Kansas City, Kansas for the US Nationals of Cyclocross.

Tonight they are expecting to receive 3-6inches of snow and racing begins again tomorrow morning in the sub 30 degree temps. Good luck ice racers!

Gatorade tastes better than water and Bonk Breaker tastes better than EVERY other energy bar on the market! If you haven’t tried one of these little PB&J bars yet now in the time. They are donating like 1,000 bars to the 50 Mile Ride. I can’t wait for 50 Mile Ride, riders to fall in love with the product like I have. If you can help spread the word by asking your local shop to begin carrying them. Often times we get what we ask for.

I’m thankful for things that taste good, thank you Jason at Bonk Breaker!

I have a pretty sweet TV. It didn’t cost me much and that makes it even cooler. My friend Kurt Johnston, recently turned me onto a show that I cannot get enough of, and it looks really good on my sweet TV. It’s called Everest: Beyond The Limit and it airs on the Discovery Channel.

My recommendation is to download season 1 on iTunes for $10.99 and then being watching season 2 immeditatly on Discovery and buy the rest of season 2 on iTunes. It’s that worth it.

Sherpa’s are the bomb!

I just finished reading an article titled Weight-Loss Goal Turns to Life-Changing Lesson in Competitor Magazine. It’s funny but the story is familiar similar to mine.

Hours upon hours upon hours have been put in by my buddies to support the the 50 Mile Ride. My guess would be that if we tallied it up there would be over 1,000 hours put in collectively to make it happen. You can’t even image how many different facets make up putting on a ride.

- Permits for the course
- Food
- Volunteers
- Website
- Picking the course
- Marking the course
- Raffle prizes
- Sponsor management
- Safety
- Radio support
- Etc, by 1 bazillion.

The real pleasure for me in being involved with the project is the friends I have made along the way. Some very amazing, selfless people are totally committed to our local MTB community and helping coffee farmers in Rwanda feed their families. This bonds us all together. It’s fun to spend time together.

Even if you can’t make it to the 50 Mile Ride, consider volunteering somewhere else in your community. You will be surprised how much you get out of it.

Rock on,

It is time to shop because you have waited to long so get that outdoor junkie something they want from an amazing store like:

Stop waiting and go shopping, without having to battle the crowds in the stores.

This is a bummer.

Twin Peaks 2008 has been POSTPONED until further notice

Harding Truck Trail, parts of main divide and Modjeska Peak are officially closed until November 2008 (or longer if recovery gets complicated). I’ll be resubmitting a permit application in the summer of 2008 for a possible Nov/Dec Twin Peaks race. If it can’t happen at that time, then there will be no 2008 Twin Peaks.
