Croll @ Como

This weekend I had a chance to take the Croll out around Lake Como. Let me tell you it was oh a purdy good ride. Hope everyone had a good Memorial day weekend!

Gersibs true calling.

Hanging out in the basement? Nope.
Chilling at the wrench? Nope.
Drinking sugarwater witha shot of coffee? Nope.


Vids.


I hope for Laura's sake he doesn't end up with one of there at home.

got er done


203 miles. 15.25hrs in the saddle. 6.10am start to 11.00pm finish. i finished in a group of 3. i think we finished 12, 13, 14. there were 4 finishers after us. i think half of the racers dropped.

this pic was after the 88 mile checkpoint. there was a 50mile gap from the check to the next town. it was so remote. prairie after prairie. i'd do it again in a second.

Memorial Day is coming up! If you're reading this, you are invited.

We should get the Friday ride going by 2:30pm. Saturday ride is 8:30 at the shop, then caravaning up to Estes to ride the fabled Crosier Mountain. I had my doubts whether or not I would ride this as a loop, but after last weekends 7 hr deathmarch, I'm up for anything.

When we get back on Sat, it's time to party. I'll wrangle us up some Dales.

Sunday will be fly by the seat of our pants/dad day. We will try to hit something 'local' late in day if we're up for it.

check them stats


4900' of climbing, 7900' of descending and 7 hours total = 2 tired ass legs.

Over there

Lion Gulch

Biggish ride for me today, huge for Dave and Chad. I bailed before the last big climb due to a broken spoke, failing freewhell, and overall pissed off and tired attitude. Before that though, we rode bikes. Super fun.




canoe'n with the boys




Took the lil fellas out this past weekend for a little boating at como. Good stuff ..... and the boys had a blast rocking the boat from time to time. I don't think either of them knew exactly how easy it is to tip a canoe OR how damn cold the water was.

take off, hoser. Chad M ready to launch. 2' wheelie drop and a 90 degree rock filled lefty on the other side. Sounds easy enough. I opted out.

Oh yeah, great commute home today. Sprinkles and stormy in town when I left work. After getting a little wet I had blue skies and a wind at my back.

Tuesday night ride.

Pics from Redstone's Tuesday Night Ride. Doesn't have the same intensity as those rides that left from High Street, but there's some redeeming qualities anyway!

Riding from town.

Saturday, Pablo and I met up with some of his ultimatefriends for a little ride from Boulder. An hour and 40 minutes later we were at the top, and got a nice ride back down.





Pablo showing us how big his... never mind.
