week day night ridin

Brad and I were talking today about doing some night rides (during week) at Saguaro East and Sabino Canyon. Apparently both can be ridden 24 hrs, which I never knew. We'll still be stickin with the weekend mountain biking but thought this would be a good chance to dodge the heat during the week. No definite plans yet but I will post them up when we figure it out.

new world record

Today I set the world record for slowest ascent of Mt. Lemmon but I did grind all 27 miles to Ski Valley. I apologize for not having any photographic evidence. But I will deny accusations that I have made up this accomplishment just like Landis denying steroid use. My doping method: cold beer the night before.

The pledge: I am for bikes. I'm for long rides and short rides. I'm for commuting to work, weekend rides, racing, riding to school, or just a quick spin around the block. I believe that no matter how I ride, biking makes me happy and is great for my health, my community and the environment we all share. That is why I am pledging my name in support of a better future for bicycling—one that is safe and fun for everyone. By uniting my voice with a million others, I believe that we can make our world a better place to ride. http://www.peopleforbikes.org/
