On the road again

After an 18 month hiatus from a full racing calendar, I’m getting ready for another big year in 2020 - but this time from Wisconsin.

Encierro Velo - 2018

The 100K Encierro Velo wound predominantly through cattle & horse ranches, with occasional rock outcroppings on the edges of a wash or the crest of a hill and mountains in the western distance. A great start to my 2018 racing season.

So long Minneapolis. And thank you.

We're moving to Colorado. And I'm fired up about it.

But it is hard leaving the scene here in Minneapolis. The cycling community and infrastructure here are absolutely incredible. And it was in Mpls where I really got hooked.

So long Minneapolis. And thank you.

Lost lottery blues

This last week was kind of a bummer for me. I got news from both the Dirty Kanza and Leadville that my name wasn't drawn to participate in the 2018 versions of either event. I have to say, I am feeling kind of pissed off about it.

Did the Dickie

The wind was a challenge all day. I was fortunate to find a group of about 12 -15 riders for the 1st half of the race which was huge - I didn't want to be out there fighting the wind alone. The second half was predominantly downwind, which was lucky for me, because I rode most of it alone.

Burleigh County Cup or Fulton Gran Fondo?

David Peterson
April 19, 2014

It seems like every week I am finding new rides - I just found the Burleigh County Cup this week (May 10 in Bismarck, ND) and with the changes to Mammoth I'm now looking at the Dickie Scramble next week in Elgin, MN.

Lakeville - Milltown - Lakeville

We didn't know what to expect of the ride, for some reason I thought we'd be on pavement; instead nearly the entire course was on gravel, or more precisely on frozen dirt roads. We were lucky with the temps - cold enough for the roads to be frozen and not so cold as to be uncomfortable.
