Getting some of that....

This winter has been epic for me, and not in the way I would normally write about it. All bike this time, baby!!




I've been trying to ride as much as possible recently and stay consistent. Other than my knee and ankle aching like a muthafucka every time I hike from the parking lot to BT at Black Rock and taking an inordinate amount of time to warm up, I've consistently progressed a little each time I ride. It's kinda ironic; some of the stuff that still scares me is technically easier than some of the stuff that doesn't scare me anymore. Figure that one out?!



I'm finding once I decide I'm just going to do one of these stunts and just do it, it gets pretty easy. I've hit the road gap a total of 7 times now, and 7 was the lucky number, as adding 4 pedal strokes on the run-in provided a buttery landing to tranny. I may have to man-up and hit the entry line to Sunday Stroll now, too....

Oh yeah, a few new additions:



Drivetrain upgrade on the Shore


2007 Specialized P2 CrMo (24's and single-speed)


2006 Norco 4XXXX Custom Edition with 10th Anniversary 2007 Marzocchi Z1 RC2 ETA

This whole biking thing is more addicting than crack, yo!!
