Still Snowy!

Took the dogs up into nearby USFS today so they could run around. I was hoping to see at least a little bit of rideable dirt but it simply wasn't the case. It's going to need more sun and more time before we're heading high for dirt!  Meanwhile, the road riding hasn't been horrible...

Tues Nite Ride 2/16

This Tuesdays ride will be a tour de Brainard on the fatbikes. Redstone at 6pm and we will carpool up!

This just in!  Boulder County is ready to move on the "Heil 2" parcel of Open Space!  However, it's not a great plan.  Not surprisingly, pedestrians get lots of trail and bikes are choked onto a single out and back trail. Please, please, please let Boulder County know that they should open all the new trails to all users. From a design point, out and back trails suck - they demand more maintanence from more use and they create user conflict.  Please click on the link below, read thru all of the comments and PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE leave comments of your own opinion!

Dave Chase!

Dave Chase - I bet you'll be surprised to find this here...but what the hell.  Glad to see you fire up the underground again, and since I'm technically an author I can still post a draft here.  Those rides from Lyons and the tiny shop back about 2004-2006 are some of my best memories of my time in Colorado.  Just a really good group of dudes, the will to ride, and a huge forest.  I hope it's still as good now as it was then.

I'm living in Virginia now.  Married, father of 4 year old twins.  Riding a ton.  Life is pretty good.  I do miss Lyons.


Anyway, keep the stoke cranking and the fire hot.  I'll be back someday.

January 2016 update!

January 2016 - about 3 years since our last Redstone Underground Report.  Expect more from the new post Flood underground.

update.  Been fatbiking a lot..


Got a ride in at a place we hadn't been in a few years.  Signs are down so it's good to go.  Ish.  More on this later.


Put on our first bike race.  The Beaver Dick Snowduro.  Things went really well - better than we had hoped really.  Put 3/5 on your calendar for our next installment.


Snow has been good to us this winter.  Fatbikes!


More fatbikes!


That's it and I believe we are up to speed now!  Stay tuned for more.  :)
