This summer, I have decided to try to park my car as much as possible. Currently where I am temping is 35 miles away. 70 miles each day starts to add quickly. In order to get around town I needed to pick up a solid bike. I started my search this spring and my luck […]

Passionate about everything, Lacy lived and loved life to the fullest. May he RIP. July 24, 2010. These stickers are […]
Paonia, is about an hour away from Crested Butte and Aspen. In the mountains. It is Beautiful. Last Friday, I went out to visit Alison Gannett, who is the mastermind behind the Rippin Chix ski and mountain bike camps. This was an adventure in its self to get out there. I thought 4.5 hours was […]
