Well, this is gonna be short as I have to catch a flight to Paris. Apparently they need me to ride the Tour. I swore I wasn't gonna post anymore about doping (at least for a day, or two), but with the two big favorites OUT, I think this is a bigger deal

In a continuation of yesterday's rant; I am wondering how people who put money down at the Believe Tyler website are feeling now. How about those who stood in line to get his autograph at Interbike(post positive)? If you haven't read, in this whole "Puerto

So, Saturday I went for a ride in the mountains, up to the top of Alpine Loop, back down South Fork, Squaw Peak... 4 hours, standard stuff. The last 45 minutes or so, I was worked, but just figured I didn't eat enough. Then, I got home and just didn't

Wanted to get into the spirit today by wearing the Leader's jersey, but as I have none (because I suck), I had to borrow Kelly's "Long Beach Crit. Series Winner" jersey. This thing is a beaut, just ask Sleevie. At first it appears to be just a white jersey,

So, I am sort-of tentatively looking for a new job. The funding at my current position runs out in December, and I don't know that we'll be re-funded (it's grant based). This is fairly distressing, but I think it's maybe time to move on anyway. So, if

Heterosexual life partners... Sugarhouse Crit was Saturday... It was good. This is definitely a course for 100k, but instead it was 60 minutes. Therefore, a field sprint ensued. I wanted to win, and was going faster than the guys in front of me at the

Waking up Wednesday morning, I was ready to face the world. Looked out the window, and "ahhhh, nuts!!!". The HUGE tree in our front yard had split and maybe 1/4 of it was out in the street. Right where I usually park the car. Luckily, the car was in the

The short story is, yeah, I managed to repeat as state road race champion, and three-peat on the Little Mountain course. I am stuck between hoping they use this course forever, and hoping they never use it again, so I can keep my record intact. To make
