This morning I accidentally spotted a @Stuffitts Tweet. Mike has been a busy man, he edited and managed to create a coherent video clip from the couple of hours we chatted at the Oak Mountain State Park.
Considering I literally ran [...]

These Specialized Captain 2.00 tires clogged with mud at XTERRA Vermont in 2009 (Read more about the race, rotten foot and tire [...]

I never tire of this episode from XTERRA Richmond Virginia 2009. “Tire” pun intended…
Dan Hugo and I pre rode the XTERRA Richmond course shortly after our arrival from XTERRA Northwest Cup in Coeur D’Alene, where I had a 4 inch nail puncture my tubeless tire in 2 places. See previous blog.
My replacement [...]

Got this new toy from the good folks at Specialized. Quarq power meter which I run through a Garmin Edge 500 ANT+ unit. I’m new at using these tools. All I really need is Watts and interval time, but this thing is loaded with info- easy to get lost. Disappointed in the vagueness of the [...]

Seriously Bobby, you need 8 tooth cleaning tools? (ok 4, if you dont count the ones in the mirror)

Heavily modified Caveman cast
My 2005 off season reading was Brian Lopes’ book on mountain biking skills. As a fairly competent mountain biker, I was amazed at how much there is still to learn about the art of making an off road bicycle go fast.
My favorite quote from the book was: “if you [...]

2008 XTERRA Worlds
The Caveman’s somewhat-secret XTERRA tips.
“Somewhat secret” because I borrowed (and modified) the article from my “All” (previous blog posts) page.
• XTERRA is a strong mans race. An endurance event. Don’t let the seemingly short distances fool you. Forget about 400 repeats on the track and all-out sprints on [...]

I’m very lucky to have a full quiver of Specialized bikes to chose from!
After watching a few youtube videos on the Waco course, I decided to travel to Waco with my 29er Epic (Aluminium)- it loves rocky, rooty and twisty. But 30min into pre riding the course on wednesday I had to “call a friend” [...]
