Park & Ride

Roses are red, Utah is too, I’m not a good poet, and covered in mud.

Rest days give me saddle sores

Salida is a black hole that few seem to be able to escape. I live to tell the tale, for now.

Dork on single-speed, coming through

Six flags over Texas, five discs over Dillon, four days over too soon, three eggs over easy, two episodes over at Kristen’s, one gear over Colorado’s passes.

Leaving on a jet plane

Colorado provides ample possibilities to sharpen my skill set: mountain biking +1, waterproofing houses +1, fixing flat tires +20. The mountains are high and the slopes are steep, but when the going gets tough, someone’s sister or girlfriend will come to the rescue.
