Old School BMX Friday

Greg Hill was a BMX racer in the 80's. I really wanted one of these bikes! Check out the seat with the bolt! GREAT!!!!

Becki's Day

When Hallmark decided to create Mothers day they could not have picked a better group to dedicate a day to. I happen to be married to a great mom. When Becki and I first started dating I knew very early on that she was the one for me to marry. One of the main reasons was her feelings on having and caring for children. We shared many of the same views on how we wanted to raise kids. Now that we have Two of our very own I can say that she is a GREAT mom! She puts the kids well being and happiness before her own and still finds time for me.

On Mothers day I wanted to do a "family" day. Since the weather was nice I thought we should all go to Green Lane Park. I spent many a day on the Lane when I was a kid. Mainly with my dad and brother when my mom needed some alone time. Luke and Meghan had never been to Green Lane. Becki had only been through the park on the way to bike races. Apon arrival at the park we proceeded to have a windy picnic lunch. From there it was off to the water falls and rocks. Green Lane has many huge boulders that I spent countless hours climbing when I was a boy. Now it was Luke and Meg's turn to climb those same rocks. Luke was climbing straight away and Meg got going after a couple of minutes.

One of the best parts of the day was watching the kids interact with their mom. They love her very much and they now that she loves them. You can see there happiness in the pictures. Becki thanks for being a great mom and wife!

Old School BMX

Five Guys, One Great Burger!

We have been getting these burgers at school for the last couple of weeks on Fridays! They are GREAT! Just take a look!

100

I thought I would do something special for blog #100, but I was thinking to much. I do this blog because of the motivation from Dave C. That is the main reason I started. Now it has turned into a nice outlet for me to share silly thoughts, bike rides, and let people see how the kids are doing. I hope anyone reading enjoys the blog. Heres to another 100!

Blog # 99

Blog 99 could only be about the Great One! Growing up a hockey fan he brought me so many great memories. I loved the fact that he was not the fastest, biggest, or strongest but always found a way to dominate! The Oiler day were by far the best! He should have never been traded! Thanks 99!

Special Race

This weekend is Paris Roubaix! A one day classic race in the cycling world. The riders will race 160 miles with about 50 of those miles over cobblestone roads in the north of France. A real epic race. Charlie who is your call for the race win? Be sure to check back soon the next blog will be #99!

This is the "new trail at school from the top!

Part of the job!

Part of my job at school is teaching kids how to mountain bike. Yes, it is fun and yes it is scarey! Middle school kids have minds of their own and when you let them loose on a bike you never know what could happen. Put those same kids on a singletrack trail in the woods and safety must become prioity #1 from the teacher stand point. When Dave C. and I built the trail two years ago we thought the kids would like it and we would have a place "close" to work to ride singletrack. The kids love it and it is nice having sweet singletrack at work! The part of "the trail" that I never expected to love is the maintance and building of new trail. It is just so rewarding to create a new section of trail that really flows and works well. The following pictures are my latest work to re-route and create a safer riding trail.

Really Superfly

This just looks fast! Charlie you said you wanted a singlespeed 29er!

April Fools

This is my first political post. Andy this is for you. I watched some of these guys on C-SPAN last night. What a bunch of you know what! When asked what they needed to lower the price of gas they all said they need to drill in new areas in and around the U.S. Why not just lower the amount of profits by a few BILLION! They stink! Ride you bike, you may need to soon!

Dream Yeti

I wish I would have purchused one of these back in the early 90's.

My Mini White Clay

I created a new section of trail at school that really does look like white clay. Pictures will come soon. I don't have the camera.

3 Hour Flow Ride

Charlie this is what you missed! I wish I could put into words how great it is to ride White Clay. The pictures only do it some justice.
