- Last couple weeks…. 07-14-2008
- I’ve been kind of just hanging around the last couple weeks. Trying to get going good and catch up on some stuff I put off from travel. Like hanging some drywall, prunning trees, giving blood ect. Recovery type stuff! I’ve been riding abit better in training, […]
- Catherine’s Cover Shot 06-27-2008

- Non EPO Test! 06-26-2008
- The New York Times had an article today about EPO drug testing. It sounds like a joke. I have avoided addressing drug usage on my website, but this is crazy. So, all these guys that are caught using EPO have an out. Of course, that is if they haven’t already confessed. […]
- Grafton Twlight Criterium 06-22-2008
- Drove up a little north of Milwaukee for a twilight criteriium in Grafton. It was a great course. About a mile in the downtown area with a slight uphill on the backstretch and slightly downhill on the finish stretch. 6 corners with a tight last corner to a long 500 meter […]
- Last week! 06-21-2008
- Drove up to Cable Wisconsin to spend the week at Dennis Kruse’s compound. We buildt a garage/apartment up there a couple years ago and it is an awesome place to sleep. On Monday, it was only 54 degrees when we rode. Something close to 50 degrees cooler than the […]
- Nature Valley Gran Prix - Wrap Up/Thoughts 06-15-2008
- OK. I hate watching races I think/know I should be racing. I love watching racing in general, but when I’m supposed to be competing, something goes haywire in my brain and I mildly short circuit. That pretty much sums up the last two days up in Minneapolis. The […]
- NVGP Criterium-Not to be! 06-14-2008
- OK. I did an hour long interview with a super nice girl from the Minneapolis paper this afternoon. She kind of keep getting to what keeps me involved/excited about this sport. Today is one of those things. But, not in the way I appreciate right now. I missed the time […]
- NVGP Time Trial 06-13-2008
- Can’t really write much about the time trial. It was 6 miles, finishing up a gradual 1 km climb. Pretty windy. 25+ mph. I was just riding my road bike with no aero stuff. I thought more guys might be doing the same, but I’d guess 98% of the field was [...] […]
- NVGP- Stage 2 Canon Falls RR 06-13-2008
- Nothing much to report here. It might have been the easiest stage that I’ve ever done in all the NVGP’s I’ve ridden. Only 66 miles and little wind. In the 70’s. Nothing to complain about there. The field pretty much stayed together for the whole […]
- Nature Valley Gran Prix Stage 1 ??? 06-12-2008
- So, stage 1 is not a stage. It was supposed to be a 45 lap criterium in St. Paul. But, the weather wasn’t great and the roads were wet. OH NO! We shouldn’t have to race with wet pavement on a short loop the field said. We raced about [...]
