Flashback crew rides to be updated soon. 1/2 way party and "Clean yer bike" at Uncle Terry's coming up soon, so stay tuned. Look for a lot of 1-2 day riders from Omaha on the first days.

2wheel's New Video Anthem

If you haven't youtubed, googled, netflix'd, rented, bought or just plain watched Flight of the Conchords on HBO, you're not laughing enough.

Bombers

Santa rocks.

That's a box of 12 - 22 oz. bottles of the special "FIGBRAI" labels - a.k.a. Bombers.

Merry Christmas & Happy New Year...

Tour de Fat - Fort Collins

Spent the weekend in Fort Fun with some friends. Was a part of breaking a Guiness book of world records for the largest bike parade. Ever. Roughly 5000 folks on crazy bikes. Freaks were out in force on this fine day. Forgot the camera, though - so I'll have to wait for some from a friend. Toured a couple brew shops, hung out in the mountain air. Biked all over.

Fun.

Sun up

It's been stinking hot on the rides home, but going in to work
has been fairly nice, outside the 100% humidity.
It's like swimming to work in a hot tub.

Saturday

Load 'er up...

The Heritage crossed a stream about 20 times with the hills of E. Iowa as a backdrop... Beautiful.

A bridge was out, but we could walk the bikes across.

The Trucker barely fit through the cinder slabs keeping traffic off the bridge

Those were the hills the ragbrai route winded through. Ha!

Carrie and I did our own day, and hit the heritage trail out of Dyersville heading to Dubuque. I love this trail. It's like the Wabash, on botox. It's so beautiful. So as not to have folks take care of all of our gear, I borrowed a BOB and hauled it with the trucker. Seriously smooth riding.

Quick Pics

Cowbell with the single - good to ride with that fool before his surgery
Small towns, big fun

Beer, shade, buds

Mr. Porkchop. YUM

A few photos of our RAGBRAI. Another stellar week. Nice temps, only rained 1 night, and I rode/chatted with Lance again. We were stopped by the Troopers crossing I35. The officer controlling traffic looked at me next to Lance and said

"Hey, Aaron. Who's your friend?"
