Going nowhere fast.

I’ve been banished to the trainer.  My world has ended. Week 9 of forever! Being an athlete for most of my life, I’m used to injury cycles.  It happens.  Post injury, it’s all about the management.  And I’ll be the first to admit I’m not the easiest patient.  I see the word no as a…

Love thy saddle

This may come as a surprise; When i first started riding, I was an enduro.  I rode thousands of k’s each month.  After some of the longer rides, I ran into a problem.  Saddle sores.  Yep my nether regions didn’t like my riding as much as I did.  sometimes I rode through the pain, other…

War wounds.

As a cyclist it’s not a matter of if you will fall it’s a matter of when.  For most racing cyclists there are two types.  Ones who have done their collar bone… Fingers crossed my time done in the sling will go towards any future time.  Could I trade my shoulder reconstruction for any possible…

I’m getting back into things.  After the crash just before ITS Melbourne, I went overseas, raced the Red Hook Crit in London, and crashed again.  It hurt.  Enough that I took myself off the bike…

Goals and Dreams – ITS Melbourne

If I set myself these super high un-realistic goals am I setting my self up for failure or success. I’m a big dreamer, I set big goals.  My friends and family know when I set my mind to something, nothing will stop me from achieving. 2016 it’s the year of the J.O.B! After Achieving my…

The best race of my life! Cyclocross Newcastle Rnd 2

Years ago, when I was a little cross curious,  Cyclocross Newcastle held this mythical race.  There was mud.  At this point, I was racing fixie cross,  and hadn’t fully committed.  After that race, and the subsequent legend status of that day, I decided cross was something I wanted to get involved in.   Cyclocross or…
