We go about our daily lives doing pretty much the same thing. Work. Eat. Sleep. Ride. We spend time with family, hanging out with friends, and making plans for vacations.

I’m not usually a fan of “almost.” I like done.  I like to be all-in.  Go big, or go home, right?!? I get summit fever as much as anyone and hate to “almost” finish a ride, climb, or run.  I almost never let “almost” stand. However, in some instances, I have to admit that...

Sometimes, you’ve just got to get on your bike and ride all day.  Not a 1 hour or 2 hour ride.  But, a 5+ hour ride that allows you to comfortably get into the rhythm of cycling, while not-so-comfortably pushing your limits.  I love long bike rides. If you want to feel almost as...

As cyclists, we all know how important water is….right?  It’s like a drug we must have for the ride. There are more than enough fabricated energy drinks out there, and I’m constantly hearing about new ones all the time.  5 Hour Energy, Redbull, Liquid Nitro, and the list goes on and on.  I’ve never...

The world’s crashing, there is stress all around……but once you jump on your bike and ride it all just seems to peel away.  Yeah, you know what I’m talking about right? Everything is better once I get on my bike. I’m sure we’ve all said this phrase, but those were the exact words of...
