local hero.

seeking focus, beginning
to define it. jumbled mind
finds clarity in the pedal
stroke. Quenched demons

this year. tempted by stoopid mid ride
intervaling, 101 flashbacks across RidgeRd
spunout chasing Evil wheel = all blowed up.

New???Trail to Moss up ColdSpring to
Vista enhanced link to Canyon and to
Leeper and CharlieBrown/Chapel, Bret
Baldwin, DynomitE!, Bugman's and
C.S. link to Logsled. Ouch.

comments centered on:

"Hardest fucking forty miles I've ever ridden."
