Sanpete Classic

67 mile road race in the middle of nowhere. I've never heard of Fairview or Mo.

While unloading my bike from the car I hear this huge boom. Each race class begins with the firing of a cannon

200 racers and 4 Porta-Potties not a good ratio.

I've never ridden in a race in which you toss your water bottles out and get new ones.

Overall it was a bummer day.
1. I lost my cool DeathRide water bottle.
2. I suffered for 15 miles while trying to catch the group in front of me.
3. Hit the wall with a couple of miles to the finish

Result: 35/44

Death Ride 2009

It was the hardest thing I've ever done. 16400 feet of climbing, 8000 calories burned, and one sore butt.

Frank did the ride twice.  He'd ride up a hill for a while and then turn around and ride back down to encourage me.

Trail Building


Started building my first mountain bike trail in the valley.
