  • Pre-Barton Fall Lovliness

    It hasn’t rained as much as I would have liked, but I’m prepared to attack Barton with teeth barred. The leaves are diving from the tree branches in droves now, forming big piles along the side of the road. Add water and you have a mushy leaf-slush I like to refer to as Raisin Bran. It’s...

  • Humility in Doses

    It’s safe to say that Molly Cameron is the sole reason that Sal and I are the ‘cross fanatics that we are. She probably doesn’t know this, but it’s true. In 2006 I started reading her blog and eventually gave into the intrigue. It was the first place I’d read the word “cyclocross”...

  • New ‘Cross Strategy for 2008: Animal Sacrifice

    Breaking the bird’s neck seems like a bad omen but I remind myself that I believe neither in omens nor birds. Still, when I feel the bone snap under me, my heart drops into my gut and my sentence stops inside my mouth, without bothering to find a period. addthis_url = 'http%3A%2F%2Feverydayathleteblog...

  • From the Road…

    You’re Not Going to Believe This But… It is raining in Portland. It has been raining in Portland all week. I am as sick of writing that as you are of reading it, believe me. During the winter the rain is a backdrop. As expected and unnoticed as waking up in the morning. Training rides are...

  • Cyclists: You Have to Read This Blog

    Actually, I’m pretty sure that most of you already do. But, just in case you don’t, I have to take this moment to point you to it. This is one of those rare blogs that is both extremely informative and impeccably well-written.  Besides that, this guy truly knows the meaning of PRO and...

  • Post-CycloCross Stress Disorder: Someone Turn Off the Cowbells

    For some people it happens after the holidays. So many parties, so many gifts, so much love and lights.  Vacation!  Celebration!  Glee! And then.  Nothing. January hits like a ton of bricks and leaves you curled up on the side of the Holiday Super-Highway, whimpering and alone. ...

  • California Dreamin’: On Video

    Ironically, one of the big things keeping us in California while we talked about the possibility of moving to Portland someday was Sal’s insistence that he "had to ride".  His insinuation in making this statement was that the weather was so bad in Portland that he would not be able...

  • Stranded on Marketing Seminar Island: How Sad am I!?

    It’s true. I’m stuck at a marketing seminar in LA through Sunday. Do you realize what this means? Do you realize that I am separated from my bike during ‘cross season? Do you realize that I am actually going to miss a cyclocross race? DO YOU KNOW HOW SAD THIS MAKE ME? [...]
