On Two Wheels Keeping it Dirty

The Blog Lives Again, and Its 2015 and Things

After a long period of not even acting like I have a blog its time to bring back the stories hyperbole sarcasm and general goofiness. Might throw some super serious alliteration at all of you too, but that remains to be seen.

The Good The Cool and The New

Look at it! I spent a solid 20 minutes redoing some pictures and formatting, that is some effort right there!

I've got a gopro now and more mounts than I know what to do with so expect some sweet quote un quote edits.

Kind of like that but hopefully a bit more exiting and not with Sail in the background since I can actually download cool music in Blacksburg.

Other things to look out for: Straight silly somewhat sarcastic Strava ride names,

A few other super rad things are in the works but those are yet to be announced..... Super secret stoke

   Whats Next? How About An Absurdly Approximated Race Calender 

Dates? Obligations? Here is what I may show up to throughout 2015

NCCX #14 and #15 Cat 3 this weekend

At least most of the ACCC Road Season as A rider

• Feb 14-15 – NC State (RR/RR) 

^ This might get skipped for some extra free radness, the Pantani Ride! Which is really the only "race" "event".... fun as hell time on bikes the whole year 

• Feb 21-22 – William & Mary (RR/CRIT)
• Feb 28 – UNCW (CRIT/Poss. RR)
• Mar 01 – UNC (CRIT)
• Mar 07 – Mason (RR/Poss. ITT)
• Mar 08 – Maryland (CRIT)
• Mar 14-15 – SPRING BREAK

About here I'm going to start looking for XC races....

• Mar 21-22 – Duke (RR/TTT/CRIT)
• Mar 28-29 – Navy (RR/TTT or ITT/CRIT)
• Apr 04-05 – WVU (CRIT/RR)
• Apr 11-12 – ASU (RR/CRIT/Poss. TT)
• Apr 18-19 – VT ACCC ROAD Championships (RR/TTT/CRIT)
• Collegiate Road Nationals in Asheville!  

Summer:

• Some legit fast XC races with big time competition! 
• Maybe a 12 hour race on a duo team? (I already have a partner to crush a coed division if you catch my drift) 

The massive event that is one of the east coast highlights of the NUE series The Shenandoah Mountain 100! If I decided it was worth it to work for a completely different kind of fitness right at the start of the collegiate mountain bike season it would mark my fourth consecutive year riding the beast. Hopefully the fourth finish too!

Fall:

Collegiate MTB Season Duh....

Collegiate Mountain Bike National Championships at Snowshow WV! (Everything is on the east coast 2015!!) I might get really ballsy and borrow a big boy bike to ride the Downhill and Dual Slalom events and go for the individual omnium? This is a very maybe, but trying really hard to crush it during XC and STXC are very real!

Collegiate CX or mostly finding cool VACX and NCCX races to go to with a few starts for the school...

Then for the third in a few months Cyclocross Nationals Championships in Asheville NC! (that would be 2016 but whatever deal with it, I do what I want on my blog) Some collegiate racing, a U23 race, and very maybe jump in the elite race! Why not go big or go home right? Or in Austin's case get worried about some trees and try to cancel it? Too soon?

Till next time... Keep it dirty ya'll
