One Water Bottle to Rule Them All

Hey Gang,

Sometimes i think that if i had enough time i could make this the best blog ever, i also think the same about cycling. If i had enough time i could be amazingly fast. The former is likely much closer to being possible then the latter, although there are some very entertaining blog's out there... so i guess i'll just take what i can get. And it's not like i have the time anyway, so why worry about it. When you don't have time it's time to roll with the punches.

Enjoy the photos!

11 photos and some text (bike heavy)

Hey Everybody,

I've been itching to get my camera back so i could unload these wonderful kodak moments and share them with you fine people.

But first...

The first batch of photos is from friday, it was also first friday which means the art galleries were open, it was also the grand opening of the new Volker Bike Shop, actually i think it's going to be called Volker Velowerx. Head down to 18th and Wyandotte and check it out. Very cool.


Saturday was the Robidoux Roundup Mountain Bike race in St. Joe, Missouri.

• Race Recap: It's hard to be motivated when your riding in the woods all by yourself, for over two hours. Despite that, it's always nice to ride some great trails in what was perfect weather. I did the 3 hr race and for most of it there wasn't another racer in site. It was kind of eerie. The race / trails were at Krug Park, check it out.

Last night was Tuesday night crits. We all have stories.

Ciao

I've missed you all

Hey everybody,

i know i've been m.i.a. for the past few days and your probably struggling to go about your daily lives without the quality entertainment that is the somethingclassic blog, but rest assured, i'm getting my camera back today which means regular post's will resume shortly.

First order of business will be to recap this weekends mountain bike race in St. Joe, Missouri.

Stay Tuned

I'm just sitting here watching the wheels...

Hey Gang,

The weather keeps getting warmer and the days keep getting better. Lots of riding lately, plus a little cinco de mayo action. Just now i took a spin down Southwest Boulevard and the spirit of the Mexican holiday was definitely in the air. It smelled spicy.

On another note, a new restaurant is about to open in the freight house district. It's called Grunauer and you should all go eat there. As a matter of fact, there's an open house this friday during first friday's. So ride your bike down to the cross roads, check out some art, then stop in at Grunauer's and have a drink.

You deserve it.

It's time for a new game... name that bathroom

Actually it should probably be called 'within what Kansas City bar or restaurant is this bathroom located?' It's a simple game, look at the picture and then leave your answer in the comment section. This first one should probably be pretty easy for my most avid readers. Female readers, well, good luck.

The hipster force is strong....

By the way, playing right now on AMC is one of my favorite movies, 'They Live.'

May the force be with you
