I've convinced my local Parks & Rec department to create an official organization tasked with building trails in our city. Hooray! Check out this slideshow I created to promote it:

Committee in my city, under authority of Parks & Rec dept, to get more MTB trails built. w00t!

Spring is here!

Granted, it's been nice for awhile now. The last remnants of winter were gone by like 2 days after our "big" snow event a few weeks ago.

Did a lil' biking this weekend, scoped out some potential new trail, and nearly ate sh*t in a high-speed skateboard dismount.

All in all, a successful weekend.

We got snow in SC this week! I rode my snowboard at the playground.

That is all.

Beautiful day Sunday, spent riding Grayson park in Charlotte. Pretty rad all-concrete park with a bowl, bunch of hips, quarters and various sloped surfaces. Rode bowl for the first time ever... super cool. It was all quite a workout, and a pretty hot, humid day. Sunny and 70's in Feb. Gotta love them Carolinas! :)

I may have the opportunity to design the jerseys for a local mountain biking team. Here are the designs I pitched, initially.

Totally forgot to post this...
I won a bunch of cool Lost Energy stuff from Seshn over the summer. More hats than I can shake a stick at, and a skateboard, which my kids are all over. Thanks!

aRGH. I broke both my pedals yesterday (not at the same time!). Good thing I had a spare set. Almost was out of luck... one pedal was in so tight that when I tried to unscrew it, the crank arm insert started threading out instead! FInally got both pedals swapped, and got back to the dirt. Can't believe my pedals just bailed on me like that. Broke off right at the ends of the spindles, it looks like. I'd had no probs with them 'till that point.
