Organic Athlete team camp!
I got nothing. No photos, no links. I’m down here in Windsor, California for the OA team camp. There is a solid 30 of us or so here. Logging the miles in rainy, windy, cold California. The food has been off the hook and it is excellent to meet all of my roadie team mates [...]
So I did this UCI cx race in LA…
…like a month ago, January 20th or something! I busted out the smoke and mirrors to finish 4th place. The trip was fun and I am way overdue to write about it and write about the wrap up to my cx season… I’m about to pull a Sager and fly south for a couple of [...]
Next week is going to be off the hook. Here is why:
The North American Handbuilt Bicycle Show starts next Friday. The party begins this Thursday evening with the Teams of Portland show. The directions from the Veloshop are here. Saturday the NAHBBS opens to the public and I know of 2 exciting after party events for those interested: Want to see more? Rapha is hosting roller [...]
De Rosa team issue:
Thanks Gewilli for the heads up about this: I got myself outsprinted by his old man down in LA a couple weekends ago, nice movie Chance. Got my De Rosa Rock Racing team replica bike in today, photos to come. I’m just such a big fan, I had to get one. I think instead of [...]
Holy crap it is cold!
For serious. The thing I love about this photo: we all know it is the guy from the wikipedia cyclocross entry. I’m getting back in to the groove of living in Portland, Oregon. Did a night ride on the VTT with brian.cx and another frozen mountain bike ride with Madrone and brian today out in [...]
Stolen fom another blog.
When the going gets tough… take a backseat. Better to view the absurdity from. Note that world champ stripes abound. Cipo and Doug opt out of the baseball caps, weight weenies. CX your fingers for his tour of California team selection.
Seriously, that guy is a douche…
Stolen from some blog, somewhere on the internets. Did I tell you I was just in LA? I’m back in Portland now after a frustrating flight home. Stay away from Delta and American airlines! I’m watching Top Gun. Go America!
Sitting in Chicago.
Waiting for my flight to LA. It is snowing. Nothing good to eat here and the pay-to-play wireless network says something like: “free wireless is too good to be true.” HA! The second I landed I was like, shit. I wish I was back in Europe. But, I am looking forward to getting back home [...]
"The time that coffee shops were the place where, in general, only grandmothers on the floor came in a steaming coffee memory about how it used all was better, it is past time."
Damn straight. It used all was better. I’m done racing in this land called Europe. It is past time. France is dirtier than Belgium and maybe even Amsterdam yet, not as dirty as LA. Tears were shed at the Lieven world cup today. Saying goodbye to friends until next winter. The results are screwy, I [...]
