I read some things about goal setting a while ago that goals should be like a Lighthouse, something to guide you, to help you make course corrections and not as a destination.

I tried to get a riding buddy, but something about “it’s too cold” Read More …
Yesterday’s ride with the FOG crew was the 1st in a number of weeks as I’ve been at the lake on most weekends, and did the Muddy Waters Grand Forno on one of the weekends that I was in town. The weather looked very nice early in the morning, with a little coolness in the Read More …
