Need a weekend from the weekend

Sometimes (most times) Monday's are a much needed break from being outside; leather chair, 2 computers, air conditioning, multiple email accounts, feet up, shoes off and of course a plethora of food at the fingertips.

Especially this weekend, lots going on:

First, as always a big congrats to all the Durango Folks who went to Idaho for Mountain bike Nationals (I stole some of these pics from Durango Devo, I hope they don't mind):

-Twells wins


-Devo leader Sarah Tescher getting 5th in the Super D and 4th in the SS(that's "Muscle").
-"Chad to the Cheeney" takes 10th in the SUPer D and 5th in the SS.

-B man Shaf's showing the world that he is the fastest CAT1 Man in the U.S. of A(25-29) and contrary to popular belief, he does brush his teeth


-Tad Elliot 6th in the XC-bike racing is just a hobby for him; his day job is nordic skiing

-Edmund Overend 14th in the XC (are you kidding me? What is he like 60 now?)


-Grotts winning the Junior race
Those are just some of the results, I could literally spend the entire day writing about all the Durangoeans who killed it this weekend, congrats to you all.

Upcoming events:
Don't miss Devo's Triple Crown this weekend up at Purg:

The following weekend is the Hermosa Classic a fundraiser for Fort Lewis College Cycling and an awesome event-Quality single track and cook out/camp out afterwards at the top of Hermosa Creek Trail head!!

Blackhawk on Sat., that trail is riding so sweet right now; hit "west cross creek"(so hot right now) off of Hotel Draw, that is a sick trail-drops out in the meadow at the North end of Hermosa Creek- pics are coming (come on Jen, send me the pics already-Gosh)!


Sunday we got HIGH on STONER Mesa-outside of Dolores towards Lizard Head pass, left off of 145 towards Dunton Hot Springs(what up Ms. Hilton) is some of the sickest single track I have ever ridden: Stoner Mesa to Calico to East Fork Fall Creek to West Fork Fall Creek down Johnny Bull Creek(whoa Johnny Bull)!

Lizard Head Wilderness: Dunn Peak, Middle Peak/Dolores Peak:




Don't judge, it's a lot harder than just twisting your wrist:

Then I ran out of gas..........twice; I only run out of calories on the mountain bike


Holy attack of the tomato plant
obese basil!
