Straight Outta PROvo...

Blogging is so '06. Blog-quitting is this years' blogging.

Believe Floyd...
I am sure that he just has a naturally high testosterone level on the 17th day of a grand tour. I am going to try and keep this short as I really do have more important business to attend to. I knew this was going to happen. I almost put it in the "kicked Read More...
My Quest for World Domination Continues...
Morgan Hope Barrett came screaming into the world 7/25/06 at 10:52pm. She (better clear that part up for those not in the know) weighed 7lbs 3ounces, and is 20" tall. Mom and babe are doing great. Morgan did give us a bit of a scare being head down (ie-headed Read More...
We have our final team member for TofU
Dear The Jan, We would be liking for you to come and riding the Loop of Utah. We are having many mountains for which you can crush to powder between your inhuman thighs, and many large breasted womens for you to enjoy. I know that you have been doing Read More...
A Two-Fer: Our ToU Team
Since Smallwood announced their team, I thought I'd put up ours too. Manager: J-Rad Nelson Riders: RB, Sandy, Eckimov, Normie, Jason Sager, and a mystery man to be announced. Seriously, I have had a ton of inquiries for this last spot, and hopefully it'll Read More...
The Day I Kicked Floyd's Ass, and Cruisin' in P-town
As jaded as I try pretend to be with pro biking, a ride like today's still moves me... Therefore, I present the day I kicked Floyd's ass: http://www.dailypeloton.com/displayarticle.asp?pk=562 On another note, the city of Provo got a grant to provide bikes Read More...
Sundance Hillclimb
What can you say? It was a hillclimb. I wasn't particularly good or bad or even indifferent. I did get beat by a citizen wearing boardshorts, but I know him and know that he is the manimal, so I didn't go home and cry in my soup or anything. I did, however, Read More...

An honest question...
Noting the lack of comments recently (am I suddenly less interesting??), I pose this question to you, the faithful reader: Am I getting more or less retarded with my salutes with age? cyclingnews.com/photos/?id=2002/may02/sanluisrey/ryan OR truesport.com/Bike/2006/photos/antelope04.html Read More...
Utah Riders Killing It...
JeLo and Bur-zurker 3rd and 7th at first stage of Cascade. On that note, did anyone notice the resemblance between Christian Knees (Milram - in the break the other day) and Louder? Uncanny. Kirsten Kotval WINS 35+ Nat'l. Crit. Titles. Ryan "Turbo" Barrett Read More...
Chalkin' It Up
Sunday was the Chalk Creek Road Race and boy did I suck. Upon reviewing it, I didn't race for two weeks in a row before it, which is no good for me. I am the kinda guy who gets the form going really fast (why I usually do best the last stage of a stage Read More...
Suicidal Squirrels
So my last two rides along the PROvo river trail have involved squirrel tagging. No, that is not prison lingo. I don't know what the story is, but the one I hit yesterday has gone on to his squirrelly reward. One time waaay back when I was a junior a Read More...
Blogging, babies, fireworks, fake holidays, Thanks for the juice (not the Tour kind), I-talian bits and more...
Yeah, I am back. I've been too busy to blog the last week. Wait, I hate it when people say stuff like that. Correction: I have chosen to do other thing than blogging for the past week. What with not doing Gate City, I took a rest week and with two weekends Read More...
