chippo wanted to stop in moab




kevin trudeau is the man, i know kevin millet here in slc. hes the local man, and master bates will be racing before the summer all doped up on blood boosters like lance, im sure he will take down wolf and gallager in the 1 speed ICUP world championships.
on the way to fruita we stopped in moab for a day. i rode around in the desert for 4 hours, got lost a few times, hiked through the sage brush and found a skull.

i was thinking of the last time i was down here. it was april 2003. i raced the old hurrah pass jacobs ladder course. i was on fire that week and expected to win, i got something like 7th and i was pissed so i never came back down here. not even to watch the 24 hr in oct. its been 4 years since i was last here and its been 19 years since my first trip when i was 14. i rode slick rock in an hour and was remembering the days when it took me 1.5 hrs and totally bonked me, when i was 14.





we drove up to fruita after the self induced low glycemic bonk stupor. i only had 1/2 bottle of gatorade on my bike today. i didnt think i would get lost.
go figure. hiking in sand. yaaaa



im sure i can find some sweet 1 track here in town tomorrow for another 4.
