This is a 30+ mile ride that we do early Sunday morning. Sunday morning is the only time I will ride from my house down Market St. Otherwise I am liable to be hit or run over. On the way back I will avoid Market St. More...

Box of shops, or the mall, that is. Got this one from my brother today. It is nice to see that mountain biking can be done pretty much anywhere. I don't know where Libebec is, but it sure ain't the US of A. More...

Quote from Monty Python and the Holy Grail. Just substitute trails for castle.
Listen, lad. I've built this kingdom up from nothing. When I started here, all there was was swamp. All the kings said I was daft to build a castle in a swamp, but I built it all the same, just to show 'em. More...

This was from a ride back last May, which is the last time I made it out to FATS (and yes, it's killing me not to have ridden FATS since last May). Ed and I rode all the trails there. I was trying to get to 50 miles but we ended up with 43. More...

So with the recent heavy rains that seem to occur with weekly frequency, the local trails have become a sloppy muddy mess. And it's not just Blue Clay...UNCW was also underwater on Sunday as John unexpectedly discovered. More...

Here's some pics of a ride that Ed, Mike, and I have been doing on Sunday mornings. This is unique in that we ride the road, trails, and beach in one ride on the same bikes. That's something you can't do in most places, and you read about it here first. More...

So on our way to our annual gathering in Pisgah, Ed, Mark, Jimmy, and I met in Columbia, SC to ride the trails in Harbison State Forest. The park is right off of I-26, so it makes a perfect stop along the way. More...

Took a trip to Pisgah not too long ago. It rained. But I did get a couple of good rides in. The first one was when I first got to the campsite at Davidson River on Saturday afternoon around 4pm. About 15 minutes after I parked the car at the site and setup the tent I was riding up the road. More...
