Why are there so many of you who are such dorks and douchebags when it comes to interacting with women on the trails? I’ll give you an example, Lady P who happens to be happily (that’s what I’ve been told) married to yours truly, gets quite a bit of men talking to her while riding.…

If you recall Cousin Joe and I raced on the 2Fast4You Tandem 2 years ago. Since I’ve been wanting to race on the tandem, I’ve put out the call to the guys on the race team to see who would be my new Stoker. Before I make this grand announcement, I’ll be holding auditions to…
A confession: until this past weekend, I hadn’t ridden a mountain bike since sometime in July (even though I have a new bike!). Ouch! For the most part, my riding is done on weekends… I work a chained-to-the-desk office job, and I have two young kids at home, so for the sake of household harmony…
I know I’m not the only one who will raid their hydration pack for food during the day…while at work, right? I mean, you guys do that too, right? Well, I for one, am not ashamed to admit that in the middle of the day while at the office, will occasionally go to my car…
As you all know we just had Labor Day. For us, this meant riding! On Saturday we headed over to Aliso Woods. Being out of shape, I cut my ride short while Lady P and Khoa went on to other parts of the trail to take photos. These two are notorious in taking photos during…

I have heard it from so many other riders, “skinny = fast.” But, as a friend of mine, Wankmeister, is finding out, skinny also equals misery. As anyone who has ever tried to lose weight knows, there are a gazillion different diets out there. One thing all diets have in common — you can’t spell…
To follow up on my frame shopping, I ran in to something else that really bugs me. I hate it when I walk into a shop and none of the sales people acknowledge me. I know that I previously said that I’m getting hooked up with a frame, but I still wanted to shop around…
One of my pet peeves in life is lack of effort. I can’t stand it when people see an opportunity or challenge and don’t even bother trying. I’ll give you a bike related scenario, I was just at 2 different bicycle shops in my immediate area and I walked in looking for a frame within…
A few weeks ago my family and I all jumped in our van and drove up to New England to visit family in Massachusetts and New Hampshire. Since I’d only gotten my Niner EMD9 a couple weeks previously, I had to take it along. I got to ride some of the trails I grew up…
