Training
It Was Just One Of Those Days…
On Saturday, I pedaled in my 3rd “Blood, Sweat & Gears“… a century ride that starts and ends in Valle Crucis, NC. The cumulative climbing elevation is 13,000+ feet, with one of the climbs up to the gap at Snake [...]
Feel Stronger You Will… When Relaxed And Stretched!
Oh… Yoga… NOT Yoda! OK… I know it’s a “stretch” in itself but now that I have you with my cheesy intro… let’s all focus on our breathing and begin.
I recently ran across a local Yoga Instructor on twitter. It seems yoga is what strongly roots her growing tree of qualifications and accomplishments.
USAC certified [...]
Tour de Appalachians: 2009 Spring Cycling Camp
“It’s yourself you’re climbing. If you don’t want to know, stay at the bottom.” Paul Fournel
What an adventure for “The Lost Boys”! (From left to right: Tim, Jeff, Ralph, Leslie, Donald.)
We’re on top of Mt. Mitchell. You can see the full slide show of our cycling camp below.
I’m fortunate because I am now accepted as [...]
Going Global In My Garage…
I say garage… but if you read one of my recent posts… I’ve dubbed our garage the “Man Cave”. Anyway, because of the winter weather and my quest to really get going on training… I needed a new inspiration for some serious spins on the trainer. Enter Global Ride! In that recent post about pedaling [...]

It’s the subject of my post: Another Great Reason To Ride…
I’m proud to call the cyclist on the cover, Brian Sain, my friend. It’ll be two years ago this [...]
Spinning Away In My New Man Cave…
I now have my things (anything cycling related) set up in my new “man cave”… a.k.a. the garage. I guess it’s the room my wife always said I would have in the house. I think I’ll finally break down and hang my autographed George Hincapie poster and Lance Armstrong Poster. I’ve hesitated doing this because I always thought [...]
Ready To Ride…
Need I say more about the “Mac Attack”…
Ahhh… Here Comes The Sun
Hope your day has some sunshine too!
Learning To Drive…
Here’s a picture I took very carefully. You can just barely see the front of a white car over my shoulder about to pass me… see it there in the right of the photo. It’s a student driver… as in a young teenager learning to drive. Fortunately, they passed slowly and confidently. The good news [...]
Now That’s A Cycling Family…
You could call this a serious set of wheels. I was driving along and saw this family pedaling/rolling down the sidewalk (I think the dad was doing most of the pedaling). I had to take a picture. This dad gets a ”way to go” nod from me just for hooking up this cycling train. It’s looks fun… and the [...]
