What's Really Going On This Weekend...
Ok, this is final. Unless something changes, of course. Dad is coming into town on Friday night. First time meeting the grandkids. About time. I could get into the semi-strained relationship with dear old dad, but that is a torture I'd rather not Read More...
Save the AB Crit. AB Ride on Sunday
Okay, mostly Utah bikers probably have taken note that the Allan Butler Memorial Crit was cancelled. Basically, something else is going on at Thanksgiving Point. All that is needed to keep it going is a venue and changing the venue for the permit with Read More...
What I Learned in Sunday School...
It turns out you can judge a book by it's cover. So, I went to church Sunday like a good boy scout. I go most of the time because I like it. If I miss it, I don't feel guilty or think I've done anything wrong. Anyway, we had a Sunday school Read More...
Harvest Mooned
"One Word Was What You Did To Me" Okay, so we had the big bike meet up in Ogden tonight. I am up late (for an old man like myself), trying to figure it all out in my head. I was pretty pumped for this one as I wanted (and still do) to make up Read More...

People Watching
First off, my man Kirk Eck won Lotoja. For the poor souls who don't live in Utah, Lotoja is a 215 mile bike game from Logan, UT to Jackson's Hole, WY. Eki is a resident of Logan, and apparently he felt his celeb status was diminishing as he had not won Read More...
A Story and An Ad.
Yesterday I convinced the Honor Code Breaker that the only reason I was ever on any pro teams is that I could provide a clean urine sample for the guys. Is he really gullible, or is that just believable? Anyway, the real point of the story was that I Read More...
The Conspiracy Rages On...
I just feel like I can't catch a break. Got somekinda cold going on. Clearly, having two little ones around has nothing to do with it and some conspiracistsisstss sneezed in my struedel. Anyway, yesterday new P-town resident, and BYU guy H.C. Maynes (the Read More...
