    Marc begs for money v.5 (2010 Pan Mass Challenge)

    Another year, another 190 miles for sick little children with cancer. If that doesn't tug on your heart strings and get some of you tight wads to open your check book, I don't know what will. On a serious note, I am deeply appreciative of all of you who have donated, especially those of you...

    Race Report: Winsted Woods 5/23/2010

    Sorry, no pics yet. There were a couple people on course snapping pics, but I don't know if I'll find them online or not. Race went better than I expected. My legs were still a little beat; Saturday was supposed to be mostly a rest day with a recovery ride but I spent all day working in the...

    Race Report: Wells Ave Training Criterium 5/2/2010

    Sorry, no pics this week. First crit went well for me, although there two crashes, one on the prime lap and one on the bell lap. The first only took out two riders and the second just one, which was amazingly lucky. Both ended up in the hospital. The pace was about what I was expected, we...

    Race Report: Root 66 Winding Trails Classic 4/18/2010

    First MTB race this year, and it went pretty well save for one minor issue. Cat 3's started at 9:00, the course was 5.5 miles, 2 laps, very fast. Very fun. Single and double track, lots of twists and turns, few logs, couple hard climbs but all in all a pretty easy course. The minor issue to...

    Douglas State Forest 4/11/2010

    I've been here a few times before, mostly doing short stuff near the park and lake. It had been a number of years since I went to check out the single track south of 16 to the west of the Midstate Trail. Don't bother! It has potential, it's one long rock garden for about 3 or 4 miles however...

    Jelly vs. Fluff - The most important issue of our times

    Title says it all. Keep it clean. No wait, keep it sticky. Ok, bad phrasing, scratch that all together. Given the option, what's your go to peanut butter mate?

    Modest Mouse... I like these guys...

    I'm leaving Saturday....

    ... for the Chic Chocs, biatches. :dunce: I've done barely any sliding this winter. So um, yeah. That's it. I'll make sure someone takes pictures. Probably Austin, because I'm apparently a camera ra-tard.

    West Thompson Dam 3/9/2010

    Meh... I've been getting out every so often on the road bike and on the trails, but because I'm bored, here's the trail report from yesterday: Holy farking shiat, the trails need maintenance. I emailed the park office to see if they will have volunteer work or work days. Most of the trails...

    Sometimes, I really just wish...

    I could buy clementines one or two at a time. Why the frack am I forced to buy them by the crate, a hundred at a time? I like them, but not that much. This is clearly a conspiracy of collusion of the clementine growers.

    Steven Segal: Lawman

    Really?? I... I just don't know what to think. I'm feeling so many things at the same time.

    If you had a radio show...

    What would it be about? The rules are, you can play music, but only maybe 50% of the time (what kind)? So what would be the format... general or specific subject matter? Based a lot on call in's or no? Comedic? Political (no need to specify any further, just 'political' will do)? Anything...

    Sleep graphs

    Don't know if you've seen this before, but I thought they're amusing. And being an engineer and all, I like graphs.

    I hate you all, kiss my ass

    That may have been a bit of a reactionary statement. I apologize. Two weeks ago today, on my first real MTB ride of the season... I endoed, in the dark, went OTB... landed on my hands and feet, simultaneously bashing my left knee into a rock that was sticking up out of the trail a foot or...
