Bacon Saves Arm Warmers
Riding
THE ARM WARMERS ARE HERE!
That’s right folks. Get em while they last. Genuine, Bonifide Bacon Saves Arm Warmers! They are wool and are very comfortable. I know wool comes from a sheep and not a pig, but they are a barnyard animal and they are edible, delicious and not very healthy. So that’s something. If you want a... »
Cow Canyon @ Dawn(ish)
Japhy Rider and I snuck out for an early AM ride today. Weather and trail was perfect. Coyote howls were frealkish and disconcerting. Deer herd was jumpy. Dogs were spastic and rowdy. Riders were mouthbreathing and smelly. Cow Canyon @ Dawn(ish) | Flickr – Photo Sharing!. The trail is a kinda rutted... »

TBS Ride Group
Jim pinged me via SMS last night to see if i wanted to ride. I did. We did. It was epic. But it got me thinking. “What if some other Bacon Stipper wants to ride?” @ 10:00 PM it’s hard to round up the troops for a 6:00 AM ride with individual text messages.... »

Hole in the ground
Rode HITG with Jim_S (reno), Jenni & John (SLC), Finche Platte (Stockton i think), and Dug (Bay) on Sunday. Trail is in great shape. There was one 10 foot patch of snow. Amazing to see that so late in the season. For more photos check this post about Photo John and Jenni’s trip to... »
Weekend Rides
What are the plans? I want to get out for at least one morning. I know TheRestlessApe wants to ride up to the Meadow, old Flume, Tyrolean and back. I want to ride something I’ve not ridden yet this year (and with less fire road climbing). Maybe HOTG? Maybe Donner Rim? What say you?... »

Sweet new trail in Spanish Springs!!!
Yesterday Nooner, Bustigator, The Restless Ape, Aron, Juni and I found a new trail out in Sparks thanks to a tip from my buddy Martin. It was RAD! It starts off a dirt road behind the new softball fields near Red Cock Gold Course. Follow the pink BLM access signs for now. It starts... »
