Quite a bit of snow fell last night. I witnessed this blizzard as I looked out the window occasionally from around 2 am to 4 am. I was doing some system maintenance for my job while eating a really late night dinner. I had the next day off, which made it worth it. Mostly. Today, […] Ten days ago, on Thanksgiving, I gave my 2 Hour Challenge Ride a good honest try. But, as I explained in that article, at around the 1 hour 20 minute mark I was starting to feel some fatigue. I neglected to mention in that article that along with my legs starting to feel fatigued, I […] It seems like almost every year, Thanksgiving has perfect cycling / running / whatever weather. I think the universe is telling us to burn some calories before taking too many of them in. :-D This Thanksgiving, it was 50 degrees and sunny, so I decided to do my 2 Hour Challenge Ride! This is a […] East Cedar Street Trail This blog entry is a continuation of my personal mountain bicycling learning journey that I started recently. I am a road cyclist who is learning the art of mountain biking with a little help from my friends. :-) Last fall, Jeff Selfa was kind enough to take me, and some […] Chinese Peak, West Trail I have spent the vast majority of my cycling time on the road. It’s useful (in terms of commuting), it’s easy, it’s a great workout (in terms of those wonderful weekend road rides), and there’s very few variables involved to throw off it’s sheer simplicity and ease.

The routes range from “kid friendly” to “one heck of a 3 hour workout”. Naturally I had to sign-up for the most difficult one (see route here). […] Throughout my approximately 4 years of recreational and commuter cycling, I’ve mainly concentrated on getting faster, buying better bicycles, getting better at hill-climbing (haha!), vehicular cycling techniques, and other main staples of cycling. These all sort of come naturally over time. Some of the things that don’t come quite as naturally to me are bicycle […] Courtesy, Mapmyride.com For the last few years, I have been using a really fun and scenic route over and over again that is also quite popular with many other cyclists in Pocatello. This route consists of Portneuf Road, Rapid Creek Road, and Buckskin Road, and is some of the most beautiful territory near Pocatello. […] I was dying to ride my new Windsor Tourist that I bought a month ago from bikesdirect.com (I’ll post pics soon!) So yesterday, I set out with tlp to do McCammon and back. The temperature was a balmy 45 degrees or so, but the wind was blowing steadily from the south at about 15 mph. […] |
