12 hours of Mesa Verde continues to be one of the toughest races I have ever taken on. This race consists of a 12 hour 2 person team relay on a physically strenuous course. Every year I have done this race I get devastating cramps despite my best efforts with a solid hydration/supplement strategy. RegardlessContinue reading “12 Hours of Mesa Verde 4.12.13”

Wednesday Night Ride 1.30.13
Another great time with the Inflexibles. I convinced everybody to ride the Pulpit Rock trail system and we ended up having a really good time as always. Weather was good except for some wind and the snow was nice and crunchy. Trails on the North side of the park were mostly clear. Thanks Kuhn forContinue reading “Wednesday Night Ride 1.30.13”

Yesterday was one of those miracle days where you felt like your legs could last forever and some how after several hours in the saddle it still feels comfy???? This trip basically ended up being an out and back from my house to the top of Almagre/Baldy Mountain. Lots of vertical and a good bitContinue reading “Dam it feels good to be Bikepacking!”

The highlight of course is the terrifying PhantomContinue reading “Phantom Terrace: The adventures of the Comanche/Venable loop”
