On Monday, Liz and I [...]

Back on the bike this past weekend. It had been way too long since my last outing so it took me a while to feel good and not like I was riding over my head. About the time I started feeling better I noticed how many little mistakes I make. Had I been on the [...]

This past Saturday was a local D16 HS race up in Crandon Wi. Yes, that would be THE Crandon, where the offroad truck race track is. Wow. What a trip.
