Dirt Sweat and Gears


After the excitement and pain of my first mountain bike race, all I can think of is when the next one is. 4 buddies and I entered Dirt Sweat and Gears, a 12 hour bike race in Fayetteville TN and had a blast camping and riding last weekend. The trail was great after the first 2 hours and for 4 of us it was our inaugural race. Garret kept us competitive while the rest of us struggled with how many beers we could drink in between laps.

An experiment in publicizing my private life

I don't write in a journal, but somehow the blog seems like a good way to stay in touch with folks as I travel. As long as I remember I've been traveling, and have been lucky enough to live in different parts of the country for work, 3-6 months at a time. Based out of Nashville, I am on my way to Santa Fe for the summer.

We settled down a year ago, bought a house and live within an hour of all family and some close friends. But somehow my wife and I can't stop traveling, so we're off.
