Just started!

After much flip-flopping I decided to start a blog. It will have random thoughts, race reports, exciting news things, possibly some training stuff, etc...
I have no idea how many times I will actually post, but I hope to do it frequently. I think it will be fun and I know a few people who do this blog thingy, so I might as well join the club! Haha

These pics are from a 12hr mtn bike race that my friend Mason and I did. It was the Minnesota 24 http://www.24minnesota.com  It was down in Red Wing and we did the 2-person 12hr race. We were Blokes with Spokes! Both of us rode the Surly Puglsey for the first time. That bike is awesome. I love Surly even more now after riding this bike. I never thought I would be doing something like this because I used to be head-over-heels over triathlons. Over the years I have found tris starting to become very expensive and I needed a little change. I think I have found my new sport (besides running of course!) I will be getting my own bike soon. I have been borrowing a felt nine solo from Jared (fellow mechanic and friend) and that bike is fun. Though I do need my own so I won't feel bad if I break something! Once I get that bike I think there will only be maybe 6 bikes I still would like to own... I think my goal is to be like Ben Doom, dominator of long races and owner of many awesome bikes. Also emulate Mike Schroden, destroyer of 12 and 24 hour mtn bike races!

I think that is good for a first blog post! More to come. Enjoy. Cheers? Nah, I am not cool enough for cheers.

This is me loving it
