Nobody Listens Anyway

I can’t ever seem to remember Brent Carpenter’s name which is probably rude, but I have heard people here in Logan refer to him as happy, smiley guy. Almost any day of the week he can be seen riding his bike around town. He has a horn on it that he honks and [...]

Team Astana has been barred from the Tour de France and all other ASO events this year which means that Levi Leipheimer won’t be able to ride which is absurd. Team Astand is basically brand new this year and its members include champions that should be allowed to compete.
Join the campaign and push for [...]

My wife will kill me I am sure, but this morning I dropped by the bike shop. I had a few minutes and if I go in the morning I can work with the shop manager which is always a better experience. My intention was to drop in really quick, lust, get a [...]

Well sort of. The pros have great techniques. They are fun to watch. You want legs like then and their bikes are awesome. You can learn about how to climb hills and how to sprint from the pros.

I just got a notification about the status of Trek’s Project One. Even if there are a few kinks left to work out and even though the pricing isn’t on the site just yet I am thrilled that Trek decided to let us have a look at what they are planning. Praise to [...]

I like to ride, but I won’t be joining these guys. I must be getting old since riding in the middle of the night in the cold doesn’t seem especially appealing. I’ll stick to the trainer in front of the computer.

As long as I am ranting about everything under the sun I may as well add the Tour de France to the list. This year they have banned Team Astana from participating. The result of this action is that Alberto Contador and Levi Leipheimer, last years 1st and 3rd place finishers won’t be [...]

It is no secret that I have been excited to see the new 2008 Trek Madonne for a while. I have now seen the 5.5 and 5.2 in the local shop. They say they will get a 6.5. I am still hoping that is true. It took a long time for [...]

During the winter I become a little less obsessed with bikes. The fact that the only place I have to ride is in my office on my trainer while it is 19 degrees outside doesn’t help. In spite of the winter cycling duldrums I have been looking forward to January 1 for a [...]
