The storms came. It snowed. So I set out to try to find some snow to ride through. Climbing Milagrosa. I’ve only done it a handful of times (compared to dozens of descents). Results in the past were mixed. But Jay opened my eyes to how incredibly fun it can be. It was just so …. [Continue reading] 
For whatever reason, I haven’t been carrying a camera on recent rides. But I have been strapping a Garmin 201 to my bike. And here’s my “art”, aka, where I’ve been in the last week. Riding bikes is my art, or it’s art to me. That image is just a representation, and tells nothing …. [Continue reading] 
You can ride no further! Romero Canyon trail. Leviathan as commuter bike. An entire day of trailwork resulted in this small piece. It’s slow when your crew is only 2. We’re paving (armoring) this steep turn out in the Tucson Mountains. Think you can ride it? Our friend …. [Continue reading] I’ve done a few ragin’ rides and been the target of some classic Holidaze Road Rage. Tuesday I found myself with the opportunity to ride out of Catalina State Park. First I rode to the wilderness boundary on the Romero Trail. There were a few rock moves that I couldn’t clean going up, and one …. [Continue reading]

Invent your own lines and most of all, be careful. Jay and I drove out and tested out an alternate approach to …. [Continue reading] Q: Can you ride a tandum [sic], with a flat front tire, with two people? A: Yes, carefully. I saw Paula standing next to the deck. I pulled the brakes and at the exact second the bike came to a stop. . . wooosh! Front tire flat, instantly. We both laughed. This is Tucson, afterall, …. [Continue reading] 
Another great weekend out at Colossal Cave, working on the AZT. This time the Leviathan came along and I got to sample quite a bit of unsampled trail. Paula and I came up near evening, but I brought lights. I headed south to the end of constructed trail, noting how a lot of …. [Continue reading] 
I think I spent most of the week out at Tucson Mountain Park. Mostly riding, but some trailbuilding too. I just can’t get enough of the place. Strength is definitely coming back, and I’m having a blast zipping around on the Leviathan. Wednesday night was the first time Tucson dropped below zero …. [Continue reading] |
