  • Beartrap

    Yesterday, we decided to embark on what I’d call an epic adventure. Remember, it’s been practically summer here, unless you decide to venture up the mountains. So, in my infinite wisdom, I figured, “Why not keep the summer vibes rolling?” and planned a 6-hour escapade, aiming to cover about 15 miles, steering clear of any…

  • Spring Adventure

    Suddenly summer is a reality. Winter, where did it go? Even the mud is drying up. This and other realizations bring us to this week when the daylight savings time thingy expired. And now there is more light. Spring fever season is upon us and with it brings outdoor adventures.

  • 2 Days

    Fat biking day one … And on the very next day swithing to the “skinnies”. “I learned today that the 24 hour race in West Yellowstone will probably not be on my path this year. Sometimes though you just have to hang your head out the window and enjoy the ride. I am bummed ……

  • 2015 Togwotee Winter Classic

    Just a matter of showing up for a fat bike race and getting second place in 3:10, destroying the course record in the process. All without any carbs at all. In fact I would cry foul and point my finger at the performance enhancing carb burner that beat me but I did have a coffee…

  • Canyon

    Going back to Canyon this summer … it looks like.

  • Lucy and Buck

    From 1803-1806, in an exciting journey to the Pacific Ocean and back, Lucy and Buck’s Corps of Discovery mapped the lands, described the natural wonders, and encountered the people of western North America. But, as Bill Martin wrote on his blog, “If not for the . . . epic the captains scratched out while crouching…

  • Posers: Remembering Last Summer

    Last summer we climbed Avalanche Peak down yonder in Yellowstone Park. The climb was an arduous one with a ton of verticle. Which is a good thing. The wind was so strong we rested behind cairns. It seems it was the most desolate place. Until a tiny cute creature greeted us. And we dicovered what…

  • The Urban Legend Winter Edition

    Funny the weekend approaches and we really don’t have anything to do. Then we wake up to snow. And then we know what to do. As with every good fat ride we needed a wardrobe stop. Through Spooky Woods and by Cherry Creek. The Northern trail turns South towards town. Once in town my partner…

  • Thanksgiving 2014

    We knew it was going to storm. We could see it on the horizon. At first it was just a dark cloud over the valley that we were heading into. But then the mountains disappeared. And then it started to drizzle. That led to a rain. At one point I told my partner that I…

  • Firehole river tour

    It was one of those days. One in which I woke up with an idea. And this wasn’t the first time I’ve tried to ride my bike all day long without eating or drinking. You know to see if the new ketosis is working. So I left my car at Madison Junction and rode my…
