Gossip!
Let me expand on that:
It is not that a PRO racer needs be a responsible public figure for themselves or their team’s own good. It ties into the responsibility of every human being to act decently and with awareness of others. It never made sense that people cruise through life not realizing (or more to the point, not giving [...]

Cyclocross tyres + Elkhorn photos:
The dolphin, the goat and the moose. And the gerbil… All of that. For what? Glicker. Cara. Kenji. You become your power animal. — On cyclocross tyres: After some wrangling I am still technically a Dugast dealer.

A case of bike fit:
Found these images of Solomon and I on the front of the 2007 Oregon state cx race. He went on to win the race and I froze my ass off and mentally dropped out of the race. Pictures do not convey temperature well. I’ve included a couple of Sven Nys to highlight what should be [...]
Top secret work:
Do you know whose bike this is? Eh? Molly turning a wrench? How odd. I ate a half dozen vegan doughnuts before putting my hands on this machine. Do you know whose bikes these are? Piles of steel tubing. Handmade in Portland, Oregon.

Dear to my heart.
Story on NPR about gender identity. Training with power is near and dear to my heart as well. So, this is an interesting read for the local riders training with power. Good to see data from someone other than a top pro. Did you know that “great tits cope well with warming“? I certainly did [...]
Mostly wind. A little sun.
These updates are getting pathetic! I have so much to write about and so little time or energy to put into it. Really exciting changes coming up in the next few weeks. Already scheduling the 09 cx season. Below are my scattered thoughts from the last couple weeks: – a fortnight ago: Big week on [...]
