@thedailygoodiebox so excited to dive into my first Goodie Box! Is it wrong to eat cookies & chocolate for dinner, because I may just do that. 😁#dailygoodiebox #freebies #missjonesbakingco #gertrudehawk #chocolate #benecoscosmetics #lipgloss #organic #rungum #pipcorn #alsaenergy #wildfoods #bhaktichai #savantnaturals #skinfood #elementalherbs

Quick Update on a couple recent races:

San Luis Rey Classic RR - 4/26 - A new race for me down in Southern California. Another 100+ miles on an out and back course over decent roads and a small climb done 7 times, but the real threat of the day was wind. Out of all the days of perfect weather in SoCal, today was a wet morning and a really windy afternoon, which played a major factor in the race. I wasn't quite sure what to expect but when I saw Jelly Belly riders and KHS riders start to roll up in numbers, I knew it was going to be a break away win. So as expected the race started out like a crit with attack after attack going up the road. Seeing as I was solo all I could do is try and make the jump any time a Jelly Belly rider or KHS rider when up the road. Again and agin I was trying to make the right move, but in the end I was screwed out of the winning break, suffered in the head wind for quite a while, and ended up being stuck in the main field well represented by two other big teams that missed the break, but couldn't bring it all back together. Another frustrating situation, but I just didn't have the ability to ride off the front solo into that wind. So just to make sure I got in another solid effort, I really did way more work than I should have had to as a single rider and just emptied the tank all the way to the line. In the end I only took 22nd on the day and 8th out of the cat 2's. Overall it was still a solid effort over a long race and it was fun racing with a new crowd and a new course. I'm looking forward to doing some more races outside the NorCal calendar this year. 

Thanks to all our sponsors and thanks to my Dad for hanging out at the feed zone all day to keep me hydrated.

This Sunday 2/23/14 - come out and ride with these two stallions and the rest of the #freshairfocus team to Point Reyes. All are welcome. Expect a solid ride with some solid people. The group will be rolling from the city but regrouping and meeting up with everyone on the north side of the bridge, west side parking lot, around 915 and heading out soon after. It’s going to be a great day on the bike. #elementalherbs @vigilanteats @bicyclecoffee @freshairbicycles @focusbikes @baiapasta

Winter winds are coming...

Winter is upon us...like it or not you can feel it coming. 

For some of us this means it's time for CROSS MADNESS - For others it means long, long miles of training and exploration. 

Visions of classical terrain across epic landscape in search of the fire burring within to keep our mind clear, our legs strong, and our focus keen towards the next season.

With one more road race remaining, it almost time pull out the maps and bring those cartography skills into work. 

This has indeed been a great year with the team and I am very thankful to have had the chance to be apart of such a great group of people. 

Thanks again to all our sponsors for the support they have given through out the year. 

Time to RIDE.

Literally the first time we've raced a crit together all year. And it was such a blast. Lots to learn and improve on, but we gotta start somewhere. @rognab @connorspencer @travisvanhalen @naveenmolloy #gigaomaropistachios #britesport @focusbikes @freshairbicycles #lazerhelmets #schoolofdtw #wholeathlete #elementalherbs #delapazcoffee #baiapasta
