Is blogging still a thing?

So there I was, drinking beer and looking at the internet. What ever happened to my blog..... I don't think people even realize that I race mountain bikes for a living. I think people know me as that guy who posts weekly POV videos on YouTube about riding on the edge of some scary cliff in the desert. I am a Vlogger now, do I really need a blog? Well, after a two-year hiatus, I just turned it back on because it made me smile. Let me know what you guys think. Times were simpler then. More projects, more problems. Wouldn't trade it for anything. ​

Bike Park Season

8/13/2020

#followcamfriday packing on those lb's for maximum momentum at Trestle Bike Park with Joey Schusler and Thomas Woodson. Fat-Kid Season is here. 
This is day-one of chairlift season for me in 2020. Quite the contrast to how my summer usually plays out. This year has been quite different indeed, and I guess I feel lucky to be able to ride bikes at all. So throw in a chairlift, and it is all gravy at this point.  
Picture
Joey and Thomas just spent ten days riding the Colorado Trail in its entirety from Denver to Durango. Seems fitting to do some "recovery" laps in the bike park with the crew. Add in the fact that Joey just built up a fresh YetiSB165dh and that "new bike day" stoke is uncontainable. I have been loving my 150 lately but couldn't help and be a little jealous of Joey's rig. Mine is collecting dust and looking sad in the garage.

If you are going to ride through a tunnel at 30mph, you had better be in a tuck. It's only fitting. Proper technique on display from Mr. Schusler right here. 
Picture
When I was in Japan in January with Joey and Thomas, masks were commonplace. This was pre-covid. If you want to ride here, you need to wear one. I am not sure why my country is having such a hard time with this concept. It is not political, it is just looking out for your fellow man. It's that simple. 
Picture
Despite riding my brains out lately, nothing quite prepares you for the beat down that 10 laps in the park can provide. I need a few more days under my belt to get back to my normal self. In the meantime, I will be eating cheeseburgers and ice cream. Weight equals speed. Momentum is key. Extra snacks for all.
