Gossip!
Getting ready + back to training:
Rode out to the Portland Racing – Veloshop Kruger’s farm cx race yesterday with Brian Ellin and Sacha White. I’ve spent the better part of last week trying to sneak in quality training, beat my cold/allergies and spend time with Pete, between working and getting everything ready to go. The night before the cx race […]
Alive?
Just barely. I never want to race at altitude again. Or get a cold. I’ve been laid up (is that the expression?) all week! My USGP weekend in Colorado was total crap. The altitude was killing me and it has been suggested that I was already fighting the killer cold that has kept me in […]
Raleigh catalog pic!
Just got the new Raleigh 2007 catalog in the mail and spotted this on the cyclocross page: Photo courtesy Jonathan Maus or bikeportland.org! Oh yeah, right now: Justin Timberlake Paris Hilton And yes, the new Janet Jackson is solid.
I'm the jerk at Stumptown…
…who rode my carbon tubulars to get a soy mocha. Thats right. At least I’m not in spandex. I’ve been on a roll the last 2 months. A quick re cap would look something like: Celebrated my 30th birthday on August 28th. My dad called and heckled me, my mom sent me a couple boxes […]
I had to forward these:
my eye story Posted by: “Jed Floding” Date: Thu Aug 31, 2006 2:52 pm (PDT) Dig this, I was working back in Mpls, MN at an exotic pet hospital. We just moved into a new building and we had an open house. One co-worker brought her 4yo Burmese Python and was in the breakroom. A […]
Minoura scale: one – Molly: zero.
Long story short: I was putting some wheels down on the floor and put this hook into my eye socket. Yep. It went in and up and I had to get on my tippy toes and pull it out of my skull. It hurt like hell. Still does. Freak accident right? I remember getting lunch […]
I spent last weekend in Bend.
Pete and I drove to Crater Lake last Saturday morning. It was a pretty brutal 6 hourish drive. Stopped in Bend to get brunch and supplies and spent the day hiking along the north side of the caldera. Can you even handle this? Amazing. There was even snow on the side of the road, in […]
The weekly update.
Being tired is tiring. Short track series again last night. Had a damn busy and damn tiring day. Almost thought about skipping it and going out for Thai food. You almost always feel better after you race so, I decided to tough it out and at least start the race. There is a point where […]
Is XC racing dying? Did Landis dope? Is summer over already?
I’ve been avoiding writing anything about the above. There is so much drama going on and it seems everyone has an opinion about Flandis and veganism and gender and kozy shack and track bikes and drama, drama, drama. I’m over it. Though I did tear out the page from People magazine about Lance Armstrong, Jake […]
Bike Portland. Bicycling magazine.
Just saw this article mentioned in Bikeportland. No wonder I got so many “vegan bicycling” inquiries over the weekend!
