COME RIDE THE HEYWOOD

Seriously, come ride with me at The Heywood. I know it’s likely a little late for this post as the ride is this coming Saturday, but I am taking one last shot at encouraging others to come out. Why should you come? Read on….

MID SOUTH 2024 – SEEING PROGRESS

I am back from Mid South 2024. Had a blast. Saw some great people. Listened to some good music. Ate some great food. Rode my bike a ways. I am thankful I accomplished what I set out to do.

The Mid South Gravel – 2022 Edition

Today I am sharing some words and images from the 2022 Mid South gravel bike race & ride. It’s been a few years since I’ve ridden this event. I wish I could entirely blame covid for that but I can’t! I went to Mid South on a mission to ride 1st and take pictures 2nd. I needed this ride and event. I can also tell you from my personal experience that I think a lot of other folks needed it too.

The power of the bicycle

This is a quick photo story of last week’s mini Minnesota Ramble. But the ramble is truly secondary to the deeper meaning of this post. This post is about the power of the bicycle. What you can do with it as well as the power it has bringing people and communities together. Over the course […]

2016 Minnesota State CX

Needing some creative shutter therapy, I managed to get out to the 2016 Minnesota State CX race yesterday. While it is a two day event with many more races today, I got out yesterday and shot the SS, the 45 Men, 1-2-3 Women and the 1-2 Men. Wow. What a day. Just like clockwork, MN […]

The Ozark Ramble

Just got back from Arkansas where I met some friends near Bentonville & Fayettville, Arkansas. It was one of those trips for me that had I listened to reason and done the right thing according to society, I would have stayed home. But I did it. I needed it. Sometimes you just gotta do crazy […]

FARGO ADVENTURE RIDE & REUNION

I’ve been hating Facebook more and more these days, but today it redeemed itself. My friend Guitar Ted posted this image. It’s an image I took many years ago on one of my official, unofficial Fargo Adventure Rides. I later printed an extremely small run of mini prints and shared them with just a few […]

Landrun 100 – Beauty in the Chaos

I went down to Landrun 100 last weekend to ride, support my friends and to be inspired. I came home filled with love, joy and inspiration. For the first time in 3+ years, I suited up and showed up at the starting line. Some may wonder why I chose this muddy race to re enter […]

Frostbike 2016 with the Olympus Pen F

I am finally home after several straight days of work. We hosted our annual Frostbike event. This year marks my 20th year of attending as an employee of QBP and my 23rd or 24th if you factor in I attended as a customer prior to my employment. Each year I look forward to it. Each […]

A Restart

This past weekend I left town with a few incredible people with the intent of riding, shooting and laughing. I needed it. What for you ask? To reset….Or to Restart. Let me explain. I have let life get the best of me this year. I lived up to my work hard play hard mantra but […]

Bunyan Velo Night of Adventure

Last evening was the Bunyan Velo Night of Adventure. It’s the second night of adventure organized on by Lucas of Bunyan Velo and hosted by Angry Catfish Bicycle and Coffee. It was an incredible evening of cured meats from Red Table, beer from Lake Monster Brewing, and music by Ben Weaver. Several speakers came into […]

Cross Vegas 2015 – A few pics

Good day folks. It’s been a while. Since I last wrote I’ve traveled to Las Vegas for Interbike 2015. For those new here I HATE Las Vegas. It must be something like 15 trade shows in this dump and it represents most things I hate. Honestly, I think the industry I work in deserves better […]
