Negative Numbers

Winter has finally hit in the last couple of days. Time to pull the trail tools out of the woods and wait for the thaw.

Salsa Cycles has a new 29er this fall. It's the Fargo, for the Adventure Rider,

This would appear to be another frame option for me. Hmm, maybe instead of a EWR. Time will tell what I do.

Meanwhile in the world that is Team NFI racing training is beginning to slowly come together. Though the cold is a bit of a challenge we shall not be deterred. Unlike Circlip the resident excuseologist who seems to have found alot of reasons to slack off.

Fresh Cut Trail

Started resurrecting an old trail I found out here. Looks like it was forgotten. It looks like it will take quite awhile but got all the time in the world.

And so begins the training for next year.

Just read Dean Karnazes book 50/50 a book he wrote on his experiences while completing the 50 marathons in 50 days challenge.

Not much training of the hard core type lately. More just getting out and simply riding the bike. Plus some trail building.
