Rubber Side Down

This will come as a surprise to some of you, but I’m actually riding base miles this year. Due to back pain and/or my general indifference to road riding, I haven’t trained properly in about three years. So it’s high time I started getting some aerobic fitness happening. And as a result, I have no wacky adventures to report. But I know these boring-but-consistent efforts will pay off when I’m able to actually keep up with my friends on group rides. Crazy idea, I know.

And if the training goes well, I might find myself on some cross-country start lines this summer. I had previously decided it was Super D all the way, but hell, there’s an awful lot of singletrack out there calling my name, so I’m sure things like this will lure me in:

Fun festival atmosphere, great trails, and other cool sports to watch when the racing’s over.

Here’s their website you can go to for this year’s info.
