Coincidences

It's funny how the world works sometimes... Sometimes in larger scales than others, but sometimes it's the little things that make you wonder. Not that I'm neccassarily wondering right now, but bored at work and having a few minutes to play around I googled riding dirty flying high. Just curious as to if this little read blog came up... It did, but not first.

Apparently Flying High and Riding Dirty got the top honors. Not sure how long the sites been around but it's a site based out of Tokoyo. And it's in english... And it has bike content. Weird. Not to mention it goes to a Play Burger blog post, which in itself is pretty cool. A burger joint that made burgers in a box you take home and put together like a game. I smell a money making scheme.

I'm not sure what prompted their decision to name their site Flying High and Riding Dirty. Could be similar to mine, which anymore doesn't pertain to my style. Well, still some, but this whole racer thing kinda got in the way. I like to go fast, and that requires a healthy lifestyle full of blueberries, rabbit food, and a healthy colon cleansing from time to time.

I did find this little gem on their site though. I used to skateboard. Before I rode bikes. I'm much better at riding bikes, but there was something to surfing a skateboard that I loved. Which is why I now snowboard, which I'm much better at than skateboarding.

I had nowhere to go with this... Just wasting some more minutes...

Sunflower State Games

All in all Ethos ripped dirt and took top spots last weekend at the Sunflower Games mountain bike race. Well, there were only 9 or so experts, but I took 2nd, and Travis took 3rd. That's right, I beat Travis. Hallo-freaking-loo-ya. That's the first time this year, after a couple close calls.

Even better was I was able to hang on to Aarron Elwell's, (if you don't know, it doesn't matter), wheel for half of the race. He then broke loose at the start of lap 3 and started opening up the gap from there. Even on a bad day he's super strong.

Check out the write up over on the Ethos site, along with our newest sponsor, Weston Brewing Company. Super psyched to have these guys on board. They brew great beer, and we look forward to passing plenty of it out to you all in the future.

There's still alot of racing left this year. I've got 8 on the books so far, with that much plus some just in mountain bike racing coming up. It's going to be a great second half of the year. I can feel it...

Later for now

Get Your Oh Face On

That's right ladies and gents...

Presenting my next bike.


The Specialized 2011 Epic S-Works Carbon 29er

I'm going to be so broke.

Oh, and if for some chance I see you on this bike before I get one, ride quickly away. I might just have to jack it off you.
