Alley Loop 42k's of powdered pain

Speed Racer "Chase" and Vlatchislov Maraton Man "Logan"
after doing the Alley Loop ski race in Crested Butte. Chase did the 20K and I did the 42K. Chase did the race with a speed racer helmet on. It looked awesome!

I didn't come close to winning but it was a pretty big accomplishment. My upper body was completely dead after 16 miles, and I still had 10 to go. I skated pretty much the entire last lap because my arms didn't want to move, and I didn't want to make them do anything they didn't want to since I hadn't prepared them for this kind of torture.
My toes, feet and shins had cramped up on the last lap. I was very happy to finish this thing. It was my first real ski race and it was brutal. Maybe I can do one more before the cycling season hits full speed in a couple of months.

Monday night dinner in drag

Bill, Eric, Logan
Super fly sunset with three swwank ass dudes. This was a Mardi Gras themed Monday Night Dinner, So Bill and I went in drag, since Mardi Gras was the first time I ever saw a cross dresser. I think I was ten. Eric is a swingin pimp or something like that.



Bill and I cruisin to the dinner having a blast laughing at ourselves and the people who gawk at us when they see us as we are enroute.






This is what Bill gets for trying to plot with the ladies to tar and feather me. I was smart enough to find out about the plan and when the Evil Whores "ladies" (do I have that backwards?) can't find me they turn on Bill. Never trust a group of drunk women with a bag of feathers and elmers glue if they are not kindergarten teachers. This was a fun night.

Past racing footage with the carnage included

This is Joel after a high speed crash during a sprint finish at the tour of Utah in 2005. Scott was a good enough friend to apply the Antibacterial goo to help keep the road rash manageable.
Keep on Keepin on

Update from the past

This is what a Monday can be turned into, with a little help from friends and some good food and wine.
The theme changes each week. We don't always look this sexy. Well most of "them" don't anyway.
