fixies are so rad
Submitted by redstone underground
Dang. Fixies are so cool, I wish I had one. Maybe I’ll go to the Urban Outfitters online bike shop to buy one so I can be like the rest of the clones on campus. Yeah, that’s what I’ll do.

One tank of gas in a month, I think that is a first. You can ride your bike everywhere in Tucson.
This week the El Tour de Tucson and ~9000 people came to town. I was debating doing part of it but heard way to many injury stories. Instead we hung out at [...]

White Canyon Trail Layout
Submitted by Diary of Scott Morris
The Arizona Trail is 95% complete, and the White Canyon Passage is one of the few gaps that remain. I was lucky enough to land a spot on the crew tasked with laying out one of the very last sections of the entire trail.
It was a bit of an ordeal [...]

go COMBA!
Submitted by redstone underground
COMBA had a party last night to celebrate being one of the first IMBA affiliate clubs in the country. A few of us from the Redstone crew went down last night to help them celebrate by drinking their beer and eating their pizza. It was like a who’s who of Denver/Jeffco area [...]
Tuesday Nite Action!
Submitted by redstone underground
I just got back from a tour de LGS and let me tell you it is muddy out there. I don’t even think LHC is going to be dry by tomorrow for our Tuesday Ride. Well, when one door closes, another opens. This Tuesday, 11/17, is the day of COMBA’s (Colorado Mountain [...]
Sunday Snow Day
Submitted by redstone underground
It was a slow-ish day in the bike shop today. That was good, though, as it let me get a few things finished around the shop. After a few regulars passed thru around closing time, I mustered up enough gumption to get out from behind the counter and outside for a bike [...]
Tales from the Laudramat/Wow is all I can say
Submitted by redstone underground
With crappy weather impending, today was destined to be a slow day. Earlier today before the precip started, a man rolled up on a motorcycle with a bag full of clothes heading in next door to do some laundry. After he got his load started, he came into the bike shop to [...]

I wish I could put the pieces together and add to the photos popping up from the brew ride. I’m not even sure why I took my camera. But I’m glad I made it home with it.
Here’s some photos from a ride in Chattanooga.

Friday Fifty
Submitted by Diary of Scott Morris
Slightly cooler in Tucson today. Enough to scare everyone off the trails (?!) but not even enough to bring a knee warmer out of hiding. Paula and I headed to the 50 for a ride/run combo.
Paula started out on foot while I went in search of rock.
Can you see the [...]
Pic dump
Submitted by Diary of Scott Morris
Fall can continue like this (warm!) for as long as it wants. I can’t stay inside. The sun feels too good.
Trails call out at me from all sides of town. Where do you want to go today?
Here’s a few pics from the last 2 weeks of Tucson riding. Lots of [...]
A Red Ridge Epic
Submitted by Diary of Scott Morris
Video version:
And now the words……
I can’t help it. I get excited for big rides that start from home and before most people are even awake. There’s nothing like feeling the cold dark wind on your face just minutes after being asleep. Creeping quietly through streets you know too well, yet [...]

Of the new small items I have been testing this is a list of my favorites:
FRS drinks and chews. I got hooked on the FRS drinks at interbike when I was running on no sleep and had the typical Interbike all-day/all-night schedule. I used it after Interbike while trying to fit too [...]

good day to ride
Submitted by redstone underground
Mondays are always good days. Today was no exception. I found myself short on time so I rode up the frontside of Hall and back. The rock garden was in great shape. Seriously - it was almost perfect.
All was good until I got up almost to the top. WTF was this?
I wonder [...]
