I thought Duke was not the brightest dog around. After all, he only knows a few words like: sit, stay, and OK... But maybe I underestimated him. Before I left for my ride today, I cleaned off the kitchen table. But apparently left a bag of Wonderful Pistachios. After a couple hours on the bike, I got home to find this.... At least he put the shells on the table mat for easy cleaning.

Tuesday night crits started up in Santa Rosa last night. Tay-Tay and I headed up to SR from SF to join up with Sterling and Collin. After chasing Tay-Tay for the 60 hilly miles I felt a little haggared. But that was the idea.Plan A: Attack, attack, attackPlan B: Attack, attack, go harderPlan C: Complete detonationSince the sun was only a few degrees from the horizon, I figured to start out

Redlands Stage 1: Beaumont Road Race My roll today was domestique. So I had the opportunity to go to the car a few times and bring up water to the team. The first lap intense and very aggressive. Lap 2 settled down a bit. Lap 3 I missed the feeds in the feed zone and tried (failed) to convince other teams to give me water. I burned a few matched trying to catch back onto the pack after the feed

On Edge

2011-03-25T12:26:00.000-07:00

Just threw the new Edge Design bars on the bike. So far so good. They have a flat top which I love. Additionally under the bars there is cable routing tunnels to clean the bar up. I also like the shape of the drop as it is a cross between traditional curved bars and the ergo bars. Lots of different hand positions feel good.Also, note the wheel set! They are an all carbon 50mm deep rim on a

It amazes me to no end the kinds of people I find riding. Today after doing a few good climbs up the Marin Headlands I ran into Emanuele Bianchi. He was pretty easy to spot with his XXX kit on (I only know of this team because a friend of mine also rides for them). The kit is a rare site out here since they are based out of Chicago. We chatted for a bit about all kinds of things. Like the
