Here are some pictures I've taken over the last few months of different rides.

The lone ranger

It's been quite a while since I've done any really memorable rides. With all my riding friends having left town or being caught up with other life activities, I've found myself riding alone alot. Not to say that it sucks or anything, but it gets a bit old to say the least.

However, I have found a new set of trails that I am really enjoying riding. Expanding my riding spots has been good and keeps it fresh for rides by myself. The old trails were becoming boring and too robotic, it was making me not want to ride anymore. With these new trails in my arsenal, it has become fun again.

Be back with more soon!

Update

Wow, its been a while since my last post. Life got in the way of my fantasy bike world the last year I guess.

Well as of now, I have been riding a bit of regular xc/am rides, and not much else. Currently have a specialized pitch in which I sold the meta for. Along with that bike, I recently purchased another dh bike with big plans to ride this summer but have yet to rdwing a leg over it and put it through its paces.

As my summer job seems to have slowed, I will be on top of updating the blog with regular content and photos of my adventures.

Afternoon ride

Went for a cool little ride yesterday. Something easy, as I've been sick that last two weeks.

NAU Cycling

The NAU cycling team is headed to Angel Fire resort in New Mexico next weekend for the Collegiate Gravity National Champs. With this being the first year that I am on the team, in really excited about going to this race. Racing for NAU is going to be pretty cool, especially because its more of a team event than anything.

We will be racing DH and Dual Slalom. While the other group of guys and gals will be heading up the XC force. The XC team will show them why we were the conference champions this year and come out wheels blazing.

Even though I'd like to do really well next weekend, I'm kind of not expecting too much considering I haven't ridin but maybe 3 times in the last few months. Pretty much zero time on a DS bike and only a few rides on the DH make for about zero practice time. Needless to say ill be going to try and do well, but mostly to have fun.

Stoked for everybody that is going and hopefully we can get some good finishes.

Updates as the weekend goes on (hopefully)!

Collegiate national champs

After joining the nau cycling club. I found out that gravity collegiate nationals champs is coming up soon. Therefore I immediately wanted to go. Due to an over zealous number of people wanting to race dh, we had to have a qualifying race to figure out who was gonna be going. Of course I miss qualifying for the race by one spot. But oh well. I will however be racing slalom, which should be a lot of fun. Now I just need to get my legs up to speed on the sprints and I'll be good to go.

I will be posting more as it nears closer. And look for a whole weekend report as we travel to angel fire for the race at the end of October.

UPDATE: I will now be racing DH as well.

Out for a ride on some home trails after a sweet weekend out of town.

Angel Fire

Just got back from a road trip to Angel Fire NM. It was a great trip and had tons of fun hanging out with Erik. It was my first time there and is now my favorite place I've ever ridden. We will most definitely be going back.

Hopefully for collegiate national champs in October. Anyway, here some photos of the trip. Enjoy....
