So DEA and I have decided we needed a new challenge. Something to get us motivated or maybe even a little bit scared so we would be riding with some purpose this season. After scouring the race schedules looking for such an event we have decided to take a shot at the Wilderness 101. The race says it's "The Wilderness 101 is an ultra endurance 101 mile backcountry mountain bike race." With

In a couple weeks I'll be riding in my 15th rendition of the 24 Hours of Great Glen. I'm not 100% sure about this, but I think that may be a record of some sort. The only race I've missed was the original, and I'm not sure if all of the first year riders are still racing. Maybe I'll get a cupcake out of the deal!Anyway I am teaming up with JJ and a couple other miscreants and riding in the 4

This is my first race report in a long time. My last official event I believe was the 2009 24 Hours of Great Glen. Due to recurring shoulder dislocations and the related significant discomfort and instability that accompany your arm falling off repeatedly I decided to get it fixed. So last April I had my shoulder reconstructed and they installed a couple of anchors and some bailing wire and

Team Weak and Feeble has been rather Weak and Feeble in the blogging department, our apologies to the three people who read this.It's been awhile since the TWAF crew got together for a riding event. The TWAFHFFPF was missing TWAF regular JJ (and missing sometimes TWAF rider NK). Before that we were missing riders at Porky Gulch meaning the last time we had a TWAF quorum was at last years

Over the winter I ordered a new Salsa Spearfish frame. Unfortunately I learned that it was so popular that there were none left for any team riders. So I was left with the quandry of waiting to see if a frame showed up at some point during the season or make alternative plans.What I decided to do was to take a look at Niner bikes. They have been known as innovators of the 29er bike segment and

I rode my bike to work a couple weeks ago on a day that it seemed like a good idea. I froze my ass off and by the time I was ready to head home it was dark and I didn't bring my lights. So here my bike sites, propped up against my desk covered in all my snivel/cold weather gear waiting for the call to head home. It's now March and there is no way we will be riding in the woods any time soon,

It was cold, but not too cold (mid 20's), the gravel roads were clear of snow (but not of ice!), the crew was eager (to get back and eat), and most of us (well maybe only me) had enough extra "padding" to ensure that we were going to stay warm for the duration.Folks started showing up at around 9ish, well not really considering CW lives 40 feet away, so I guess he was there much earlier as I'm

The TWAFHGGPF2010 is set for Sunday morning at 9:30 am (December 19).Weather is looking good- low 30's maybe some snow.For those who haven't ridden in colder temps here are some thoughts:balaclava under the helmet is a good idea, or at least have one that maybe you stash in a pocket, but a hat is a must under your helmet.warm gloves that provide dexterity- a good idea, lobster claw style mittens

It's that time of year again, when we pull out the bikes and go find gravel to ride all in the spirit of having fun with great friends.For most of us we've made the switch from cycling season to ski season, and this ride on Sunday is a great way to celebrate the 2010 season, and to make sure our bikes are so covered with road grime that we'll never get them clean before spring!The ride is set for

Porky Gulch Classic, the single greatest weekend of bike racing of the year. I didn’t have the week leading up to the PGC that I had wanted, as work was crazy, however I credit the PGC with helping me keep my sanity during that week.For those who don’t know what the PGC is all about, here is the run down- it starts with a two mile time trial up the first two miles of the Mount Washington Auto

Where did October go? As I write this I have one CX race left and have six races already done, so I guess you could say I'm behind on my reporting.The season kicked off, for me, at the Downeast Cross up at Pinelands. The season had been planned to get kicked off at the Casco Bay Cross, but Mother Nature had other plans and dropped so much rain that the race was canceled due to potential damage to

Saturday:With the onset of school and the practical end of Summer coming Labor Day weekend, my bikes have gotten very lonely. I think I had about 25 total miles of riding in September leading up to last weekend with all of that composed of 3 rides in the woods. None of this lack of riding had been due to anything other than lie being too busy. Up until this week, it has been almost

JJ and I got out for a good recon ride on Sunday morning. We ended up riding much of the same stuff we did last year, other than a trip up to the summit of Hawk Mountain, and just when we got to the new section we began to run out of time. My goal is to get him back over this way soon to go check out a new piece for this years route. Part of the planning has been taking advantage of the updated
