The Great Catch Up Post of 2019

It’s been a LOOOOOONNNNNGGGG time coming, but I am finally taking a moment to catch up on the gnat blog and fill you all in on what has been happening.  As much as things change, some things stay the same.  My spring and summer has been filled with bikes, family and photography. As I look […]

Iceland – First 10 Images

I have spent the last several hours processing images from my recent winter wonderland, Ring Road tour of Iceland  I’ll be honest, I did not think I was going to get good images considering that on day two, my main camera decided to stop working (later resolved and story to come).  But I got some […]

Taichung & Hong Kong

Hey folks. Despite not posting for months, I am alive and well.  It’s been months. So much to tell, but no time nor energy to tell it all.  Life has been on warp speed. Both exciting and challenging. To catch you all up, I’ve been traveling some. Riding very little. Shooting images when I can. […]

Scenes from Taiwan

As I looked back at my posting schedule I see I missed posting about my recent trip to Taiwan. I LOVE going to Taiwan. I love the sensory overload for me. The sights. The sounds. The scents & smell.  So much to take in. When I go to Taiwan, it is for work and I […]

A quick trip to London

I am still amazed that airplanes can get off the ground and it’s possible to get on a plane and wake up somewhere else. That somewhere else can be near or far. Recently, the combination of a formal invitation to an event and cheap airline deals resulted in my wife and I making a last […]

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 […]

Out and About in Taichung, Taiwan

Recently, I had the great pleasure to spend some time in Taichung, Taiwan. While I was there for work, I spent pretty much every evening walking about. Sometimes alone. Sometimes with co workers and family. I’ve been to this area many times but this time was different. I spent so much more time with my […]

SaddleDrive 2015

I spent much of this week in Utah at an event put on by my employer.  For the last 5 years, SaddleDrive has been a pilgrimage to Utah to ride and release new products. While it is a work event, each year I do try to sneak out in between our Rep day and our […]

MY CUP RUNNETH OVER

I have been a bit quiet lately huh? Based on my posting, some of my friends have been asking me am I dead? Nope, just focused and busy. My cup runneth over is a phrase meaning I have more than enough for my needs. So much in fact that I am almost drowning. So much […]

Minnesota’s North Shore

It’s Friday and I am stoked it is here. It’s hard to believe how fast these past two weeks have been. Two weeks ago I headed up to MN’s North Shore for a family get away before my work binge called Frostbike. It was a great time in possibly my favorite part of the country. […]

Home

Just a very quick update that I have made it home from my little vacation and journey.  Off loading pictures as I write this. I went into this trip with a pretty solid plan for the ride and a vision for my images. Despite that, this trip didn’t turn out as planned in terms of […]

Preparation

My blogs have been kind of short lately. I’d like to tell you what is going on. Besides being busy with home and work, I’ve got two things that are fairly big on the horizon. I expect both to happen here in October. The first is that I have a multi-day bikepacking tour coming up […]

Our Final Day of Summer Break

Today’s a big day. Our twins go back to school today. Hard to believe they are in the 4th grade already. They are amazing kids and I thank God everyday for them.  They bless our lives more than my wife and I can put into words.  So how did we spend our final days of […]
