I have an embarrassing secret. I love cycling (not the embarassing secret unless you count running around in skin tight shorts as embarassing). No, the big secret is that when I am all alone on the bike I can’t help but feel the desire to chase down every other cyclist on the road. I will…

Riding to Work Again
With all the moving around and general craziness at work I haven’t been able to ride to work as much. I finally managed to ride in again. Regardless of whatever else happens today is a good day.
Eat and Ride
One of my favorite rides is Blacksmith Fork Canyon. If I leave from my house the loop is a little bit more than 40 miles most of which is in the canyon. During the summer it is a little bit cooler than the rest of the valley and the scenery is always beautiful. Now that…

More on my new Madone 6.9
Sure I am a bit obsessed, but I have been tracking my bike’s movements from the Trek factory to the local shop. At 6:07pm it hit Salt Lake City. It should be here tomorrow. Maybe I should take the day off. In the mean time I have been satiating my bike lust with whatever I…
Bought the Trek Madone 6.9
UPDATE: First ride on the new Trek Madone 6.9 with pictures After a year of waiting. After months of deliberating size, components and Project One or stock I walked into the shop this morning and put my money down on a Madone 6.9. Yesterday by total chance I was in Ogden and so was the…
