If victory suddenly shows you its proverbial goods, I say go for it. But when fate slaps you silly fro trying, remember that you're just on your bike, and it's just fun, and it's stupid, and great. Revel in your successes, and tell long rambling stories about your failures.

Happy Canada Day! (eh)

That's one of the things about those obnoxious desk calendars that are given as gifts during the holidays: Obscure dates and facts...

Last night Julie and I took Mason with us out to Banner. Little dude can rock some singletrack. I bought him some baggies with a chamois, and after the initial "diaper" comments he decided they were cool. He was solid for about 3 miles of singletrack and then faded. Probably didn't help that they went swimming earlier in the day and his calorie intake was a bit low. We took the road and minimum trails on the way back. Very impressed with his riding ability and speed for his age. He could be a terror in a few years!
