Bacon

Bacon, wait no it was Spam, they said it was Spam so it was shut down by some sort of Spambot.

Whatever.

Didn't have much time to post anyway.

My dad was out here for a few days, did a sweet loop in the car to spy some fall colors. Took in Loveland Pass, A Basin, Keystone, the Alpine Deli in Frisco, Leadville, Independence Pass, Aspen, Gwood Springs and the Vail Valley. Plenty of pictures, but that is old news now.

French Chef was out here. We had a good routine of riding, eating and drinking for several days. I think he got plenty of all and it was super sweet to share some of my riding routes. Even capped it off with a ride up in Ned with FC and BJCV. Some pictures of that too, but...

Headed to Mpls for a long weekend of drinking, eating, visiting, Hwood wedding, CX race viewing, family visiting, and I think more drinking. Some pictures of that too...

Got the moto rolling, about the time of year I normally do... Took it for a wet ride across MN, Neb and CO. The sun broke free to show a sweet sunset on the rockies rolling in to The Republic after 2 days on the road. Some pictures of that too...

Rode the moto up the mtn this morning, about 25 degrees up in the canyon. Spent the day up learning to control the weather, should be an interesting winter. No pictures of that... yet. But I can't wait to get on a routine and start riding to work or back with a bus somewhere in there too depending. On a good day I will have about a 30 mile commute with maybe 4,000 ft of climbing or a good little downhill.

Oh, and heard that A Basin and Loveland opened up today. I have a feeling the bikes might get some rest soon, well other than that commute...

Close your eyes and visualize.

There, no need to post pictures.

ok. good news steve, i think you have a long lost brother in Norway and he's a damn fast XC skier. It was the jerky and the "Redneck" that tipped it off.

ROMAN TOFERER: Big news everybody talk about is Tord Asle Gjerdalen, Norway’s number one racer. He switch to Atomic. Now Tord is part of the Thin Red Line.

RICK HALLING: That is pretty exciting. The cool thing about Tord is the way he wears mirrored Aviator sunglasses in races instead of new high tech shades like everybody else. He looks a little bit like the guard from the movie COOL HAND LUKE. Is it also true that he eats Moose jerky in between heats at sprint races? He seems like more of an American Redneck than a Norwegian athlete.
