Nothing too exciting here in Mike world..Didn’t ride, didn’t run, didn’t do anything except enter receipts into quicken for the 10 day vacation I was just on and then try to reconcile all the accounts. Good times.
I don’t know what is going on for this weekend but I certainly need to get out and do [...]
Nothing new
Mornings and Mike don’t mix
Both yesterday and this morning I tried to get up early and run. I set the alarm for 6:45. The first time I remember hearing it both days is 8. For some reason, I am just not a morning person.
Yesterday I didn’t do much in terms of exercise. We took the puppy for a walk [...]
Finally home
I originally wanted to write a long post about my trip but to be honest, I don’t have it in me. I spent the past 4 or 5 hours fighting with my computer to try and get my GPS working right and also my photos uploaded to the site. Neither of them are currently working [...]
Don’t worry, I am still alive….
WOW, it has been quite some time since I made a post and there are some good reasons for that. First, lets talk about the 24 hour race.

quite a good show
Instead of riding yesterday, we decided to watch the movie 24 solo. I must say, it was one of the best mountain bike movies I have seen to date. It followed Chris through some of his early season races and finished up with the 2006 24 Hour World Championship. Great camera work, fantastic story, absolutely [...]
The mind is more powerful than the spirit
No riding yesterday even though I wanted to. My mind couldn’t take it. I walked out the door to ride the same 2 trails I always do and my mind stopped me and said “nope….you aren’t doing it.” So instead, Kelly, myself and our trusty little companion, Campy, took the top off the jeep and [...]
long time no typey..
WOW, it is Thursday already. Time flies by when having fun. Onto the workouts. Friday went on a quick 20 mile warm up and did a hill repeat on Cathedral Ledge. Quite the hill. Quick note, before you decide and make up your mind on doing a hill workout, make [...]
