Help the BMCC

Thursday, August 30th, 2007

Well the Fool’s Gold is just about finished up. I have a press release or two to finish, a post race email to send and some paperwork to mail off to the NFS. I’ve been pretty wiped out the last two weeks, but things are returning to normal…..well the German Bier-Fest last weekend [...]

Train Wreck

Sunday, August 5th, 2007

Nam, the famous Mike Livingston and I rode the Covington Century today. I hadn’t been on a road bike in at least a month maybe 6 weeks. I left OK on it and quite recovered from last weekend, but this was not the long, easy road ride I was looking for. We [...]
