  • Saturday Group Ride To The River And Back! 22.8 Miles!

    So today I went out with Eric, Cycle Sports, and his two customers Jim and Brenda. We rode to the Delaware River and back. It was such a great ride. I doubled the amount of miles I normally do by double. I’m a little sore because of crappy bike pants that are 15 years old…

  • Learning To Ride In The Drops

    So today was an amazing day for a ride. I decided to push myself and headed north of town up the ridge. I did some great hills and had some great downhills. I’m trying to get used to riding on the drop handle bars and not staying up on the hoods. It’s challenging as I…

  • Never Forget September 11, 2001

    We all remember where we were on that fateful day. Let’s never forget those who lost their lives. Amen.

  • Grounded While It Rains Outside

    I’m so frustrated. It’s raining outside. It’s coming down quite hard. So no more riding for me today. Only a quick 2 mile bike ride early this morning.

  • Stupid Rain – Did Hit A Personal Record Though

    Today I got up early and just my luck it was raining. I still went out and set a personal record on the Swetland Climb of 55 seconds. I think it helped that my muscles were fresh due to the short 2 mile ride. Usually I’m wiped by the time I hit the last accent…

  • Cycling Isn’t Golf, But It’s Definitely Expensive

    Golf is known for being a very expensive sport to take on. Classes, clubs, membership fees, etc. Hence one of the reasons I haven’t taken up golf (not to mention, I suck at mini-golf, so why would I do “real golf?”). I’m starting to realize that cycling, especially road cycling can get close to golf…

  • Hot As Hell Mid-day Ride

    Now I know why people ride early in the morning and later in the afternoon. Noon time sucks. It is hot as hell out there. I drank all of my 24 oz and my 12 oz water bottles by the time I got home and then chugged a propel. Only did 8 miles due to…
