Paradise Royale round II

Got a chance to head down to the King's Range again with a great crew. There had been some recent rain so the trail was perfectly tacky, making a lot of the steep uphill sections easier to bite. The weather was great, a bit chilly when we first got there, but with the climbing we warmed right up. Chris took a spill this time, pasting his blood on some trail stones. Click on the pic to see a sideshow, although I didn't get a chance to take many photos. Enjoy.

In the Guts

If you react to this as I did, then it will blow you away. What an amazing account of our greater impact on the natural world. Through the eyes of Chris Jordan, these photos depict a sorry situation occurring in the middle of the North Pacific. Check out the link.

Huggett West Coast Wedding Celebration

This last weekend was an amazing few days of celebrating with the Huggetts' for their west coast wedding party. An amazing crowd of folks showed up, some of which I haven't seen in a few years. It's easy to forget all the amazing people you know when you're so buckled down doing your own thing with school. We had a great recap of the ceremony, a great assortment of food, and then moved the party over to the veteran's hall for a night of swing dancin'. Click on the pic for a slide show of what I captured. From what I've seen out there, some pretty amazing photos from everyone that was there. Enjoy.

Single Track Action

Not the best quality, but some single track in the Community Forest just blocks from my house. My training grounds.

Good folks in Trumbill Conneticut

My good buddy, his wife Monica, and their new 1984 MTD riding lawn mower have a new place to call home. Congrats to you guys and good luck on the renovations. As a briefer, my buddy Andrew and myself had an awesome adventure together in the summer of 2002 right after we both graduated from Norther Michigan University. A friend of ours, who was headed up to Alaska to work on a fishing boat for the summer, dropped us off in Anacortes, WA where we proceeded to ride our bikes eastward toward a large body of water many folks call the Atlantic Ocean. It was a trip I'm sure both of us will never forget with many great memories and people along the way.
