The Windham World Cup was doap. We got to see a ton of great racing on courses that were gnarly, fast and sketchy in a lot of places. So many blown tires. Both in the DH races and in the XC races. Really cool to see riders just blasting through a race blown tire and all.

We left Baltimore at 5:30am. It was me, Big Jim, Patrick and our buddy from way down south,Toshun…

Baltimore Bike Jam 2010 took place this past weekend in Patterson Park, Baltimore. Spoke Apparel had booth space there as did our friends from Mobtown Velo Roller Racing.

So I was sitting on my couch for three months due to a serious injury that sidelined me. Luckily, I recovered just as quickly as I was hurt. I’ll go into that story some other time.

As an avid mountain biker and cardio freak, I was eager to get back in the game. So I rode and worked out for about 2 weeks, then decided to get my VO2 Max tested. I figured it would be a good baseline to start from seeing as how I didn’t do squat over the last three months.
