She’s Always Been There…
This post is a pause from my cycling training, my cycling fundraising and my overall cycling obsession. Why? Because without a very important person in my life… much of this wouldn’t be what it is!
I want to recognize my wife, Janice. She’s been there for it all. She was there for my [...]
Another Great Opportunity To Pedal With A Purpose!
Ride for Relief: Benefiting Those Suffering In Haiti
This Sunday, February 28th, the Tricyclists Bicycle Racing Club will be hosting a benefit bike ride for people suffering in Haiti. The minimum donation will be $10.00, collected on the day of the event. The ride will begin at 9:00AM from the Open Eye Café in Carrboro. [...]
Make My Friend Pay!
Just when you think your friends have gone above and beyond helping out… they do more.
Ian, also known as Pedalman, is a good friend an avid cyclist in Toronto.
He’s ready to ante up for my fundraiser and he’s written about it on his cycling blog: Pedalman’s View.
I’ve joined Team In Training to benefit The Leukemia [...]
Traded My Suit For A Cycling Jersey…
On Sunday night, I joined my co-worker, Penn Holderness, on the Olympic Zone. It’s a show where Penn talks about our area’s connection to the athletes taking part in the Winter Olympics. We also had a great story about pediatric cancer patients at a local hospital where they were able to enjoy the escape of [...]
The Man Cave is feeling like a cave… COLD!
As you warm up and really get to mashing the pedals on an indoor trainer it really starts to get warm. Many of us need towels because the sweat really starts dripping and that’s with a fan blowing in your face.
But these days, I’m going without the fan. Yes, it’s that cold in the “man [...]

It’s that time again to pedal with a purpose! I love being able to use my energy to mash the pedals for a great cause like cancer research. So many of [...]
Snow Good for Pedaling…
The sledding was a blast. This picture displays the Joneses in Triple Decker form making for a much faster ride.
But consider this: The first significant snow of the winter… a new cyclocross bike… and the urge to pedal.
You already know the result. I was out the door as quickly as I could layer on the [...]
Came across another ROOTR…
You read right. It’s a ROOTR (as in Roto). We all have them and maybe as cyclists we tend to think about them a little more than others.
You know how your mind can wander like the long road ahead. So a ROOTR is a Random Observation On The Road. Sometimes… it jumps out at [...]
What’s in a name?
We all like to name things. Our children and our pets are a given.
But there are plenty of people who name their cars… their boats and of course their bikes. I think it’s safe to say a majority of cyclists personify their machines.
I bring this up because I was out on my new -unnamed- [...]
Well, That’s A First…
What a day! Anytime you have full sun and 60* in January and you can hit the open road with your cycling buddies… it deserves a… “What a day!”
It was actually the first time I’ve been out on the open road here in NC in a while. The schedule’s been so busy and the [...]
