A Blurry Start to 2018

Over the holidays I was on a roll with getting out, taking images and thinking. I was excited and going into the year with a loose plan and a bit more focus. But then the rat race started and that focus all came to a screeching halt. I felt like it was a re-entry to […]

OK folks. I’ve been asked about the Fargo Reunion Ride on October 28th that I have posted about here. Well..It’s on and here are the details and a few updates. First, the start time – 9:00AM in Nerstrand, MN. We need to start at 9:00AM sharp as the meat market opens at 9:00. We will […]

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 […]

First Tracks

Our winter here in MN hasn’t been great if you like snow. Thankfully we got a dusting on Christmas night. I made plans to ride in the morning, well below first light, as I knew the trees and the ground would be covered in soft snow. The beauty did not disappoint. But the real beauty […]

2015 Favorite Images

As I point to the future that I hinted at in the last post calling out focus and direction, I am sharing a few of my favorite shots of 2015 with you along with a few words about each of them. I am working to close out this season on a high note sharing my […]

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 […]

Full Manual

As I prepare to head out on a tour all my friends are posting up their rigs. Me? I am set there as you will see below but I am just as excited about my camera gear. Going newish old school but back to full manual. All lenses ate 15-40 years old. Going to move […]

Chasing Clouds

I just wrote a couple of days ago about the lesson of taking advantage of what you have rather than focus on what you don’t have. So when my son’s soccer tournament was cancelled due to rain and weather, I took the opportunity to go for a much needed, longer ride in the country. Ahhhh….A […]

Friday Ride Stoke – Fish Creek

Here Andrew and Ben head deeper into the canyon. This was still the glorious part of the canyon where we could still ride. I like this shot quite a bit with the canyon wall, the curvy road, blue sky and the rock. Even though I know what comes after this, it still makes me want […]

Looking Back

Last night spiraled out of control for me (In a good way!) As a result, I spent the evening processing about 20 images for a non cycling publication to review. But, since I did spend the evening working on photos, I thought I’d share one that I ran across that jarred my memory and got […]

Headed Out

I am taking a break here @ ImagineGnat. I am headed out to test my mind, my body and my equipment. Time to learn something new about myself, my world and my gear. See you all on the 29th or 30th back here.

Final Stretch

We are on our final stretch of fall athletics. Last night my boy had his final cross country meet. That shot above is on the final 200 yards. He ran a good race and he was happy with his season. I sure love the determination of that kid. This week will also mark the final […]

Friday Ride Stoke

No words needed. Get out and ride folks. Have a great weekend.
