I set my alarm for 3:30am the night before the Triple Bypass. I sure as hell didn’t want to get up that early, but I knew it was going to be a long day and wanted to get started around 5am. I figured that would be my best chance to avoid any afternoon rain storms….
We can’t always get outside and ride our bikes around town. As we approach summer this may not seem as relevant, but sometimes a little indoor training adds some well needed variety. The Sufferfest Indoor Cycling Training Videos are an intense and entertaining way to spice up your indoor training. These videos feature a variety of professional…
Well Ride the Rockies 2014 has come to an end. I’m sad that it’s over, but I’m so happy I did it. It was an incredible challenge and I will always have the crazy memories from this amazing adventure.

This past weekend Jessica and I participated in the Elephant Rock, a century (100 mile) ride that started in Castle Rock, Colorado. We’ve spent months training for this event and wanted to make sure that we were able to recorded and collect data from the ride. Monitoring cycling data on a century ride isn’t an…
This past weekend Jared and I rode on our own. He rode the Santa Fe Century (tried to convince me to do it, but I was saving myself for the Elephant Rock) and I was riding solo. Naturally, I’m fine doing things alone and riding my bike felt no different. I figured I’d be fine….
