    Nightrides and Powderkeg sighting

    Last week was glorious here in MN. The weather broke again and this sudden change for the better coincided with a short break from my kids’ evening soccer regimen. This gave me the opportunity for some much needed gravel riding. With a little time and with a little encouragement I hit up a ride out…

    One Two Three

    Spring broke early here in MN. Rather than writing & reading I’ve been riding and shooting. It was quite amazing to be out and about without snow in mid March. I say that knowing the flip side that our mother earth will need moisture early this year or it will be a dull and waterless…

    Before I get started on today, I just want to say thanks to everyone that checked out my postcard and portrait project I posted on Monday. Based on stats, it is the most popular thing I have ever done on my blog. Ever! Wow. Thank you all so much for taking the time to view…

    Friday Morning River Ramble

    I finally got out to the Minnesota River Valley. I’ve been itching for some longer time in the saddle. I knew due to the flooding over the past couple of months that the river bottoms would be muddy, sandy and filled with debris. I got exactly what I planned for and hoped for. It was…

    A lotta Friday Ride Stoke

    My friend John told me last night that he needed a little Friday Ride Stoke to kick this coming week off. So….Given I am in the mountains today I figured I’d share more than one ride stoke from Utah. How about a lotta Friday Ride Stoke? I took these images over the last couple of…

    I am back today with a Friday Ride Stoke entry. I’ve been riding quite a bit more and while I may not have something super for every Friday, I certainly plan to post Friday Ride Stokes when I do.  Today is one of my favorites. I call it 1-Mile.  I have ridden past this spot countless…

    First Reveal – Project Fargo Ti

    Still a work in progress and I still need to remove the brakes but here is the first reveal of the direction I went with the project. Took this late last night. Pretty stoked to finish this week. Few final tweaks as well as a few final component selection and it is complete. Only took…

  • My new 2013 Salsa Fargo Ti

    I’ve been asked a few times about my new Salsa Fargo Ti bike. Now that the Salsa Cycles website is up, I can share some info on my favorite ride. For those of you reading this that know me well, you all know how much I love the Fargo. If there ever was a bike…

    My new Salsa Warbird – Build and Spec

    Before I get started here, you need to know that I work for Salsa Cycles. This frameset is a prototype frameset that was brought in for development purposes. I did not pay for this frameset and one day I will return it to Salsa Cycles. It is very close to final build specifications, but I’m…

  • Morning Gravel

    Last Friday I wrote about The Important Stuff. My family is number one. You know what number two is? Me. Well…I haven’t been taking good enough care of myself and I am on a mission to fix that. In fact, I have set some personal goals. One of those is to ride a bit more…
