Hello from a place that should not be named. As I sit here I thought it would be mice to post a little informational blog on what is up with the limited posting lately. A couple weekends ago I did the RMVQ and had a blast. It was my intention to post a blog on…

Hey, folks! I had quite the adventure last weekend. I set out to do some more mapping of the RMVQ course on Saturday evening. It was all going well until it got real cold – I mean, really cold. So, I decided to bail out 1/3 of the way up Point Six Road. I made…

UPDATE: Garlands post

Its that time of year when it is dark going to work and soon after I get off of work. Also the Missoula Wednesday Night Cyclocross Races start tonight. I really don’t want to do it but when I think of doing it on my mountain bike I get a little excited. So I will…

After work I got my CarboRocket on and headed to the Treasure Trail with Ed “Mr. SCymbols” Stalling. We climbed Sentinel in around 40 minutes and bombed back into town. What a great after work jaunt. Upon landing at home base I quickly downed a TRP Recoverite and headed to the Kettlehouse. We gathered, shared,…

The Missoula Thursday Night Ride once again lived up to its potential. There was single track, beer, and Ice Cream. Doesn’t that cover all the bases? Our route started at the Rattlesnake Rec Area Trailhead and we hit the Spring Gulch trails up to the top of Turkey Run. Mostly climbing I found myself pumping…

Hello from a cold Missoula morning. I just left my car at Four Season Motors the official Missoula Volkswagen dealer. This morning I tried my battery pack one last time and of course it failed. Luckily a friend dropped off a battery (deep cycle, whatever that means) for me to jump start off of. At…

It is hard to tell what exactly wrong with my car. I do know the electrical system is messed up because I get locked out all the time and I need to make sure all the enterior lights are disconnected because they will not shut off. That is why I don’t just go get a…

Yesterday I packed the car and was headed to Hamilton for a mountain bike ride. When I went to start it … Nothing. The electrical elements of my car have been going out since last winter when I was stranded in Billings (broke down of course). Since then my car locks me out, all electrical…

Just stumbled upon a collection of images that whisk you away on a visual journey, each snapshot capturing a unique story, frozen in time. First up, a breathtaking view of Missoula, the landscape bathed in the soft light of dusk (or dawn), showcasing the tranquil beauty of this place we call home. It’s like the…

Saturday I procrastinated (not really, dealing with a dead car battery all day) my way into a bad situation that luckily worked itself out. I should have learned my lesson from last year when I walked out in the middle of the night sometimes on my hands and knees. Saturday I decided at around 5…

Ever had one of those weekends where you feel like you’ve been put through the wringer and then some? That was me, this past weekend at the “8 Hours of Labor” event. And let me tell you, it was more laborious than trying to find a decent cup of coffee in a tea-loving country. I…
