Clicky, clicky.

Looks like the guys at fat-bike.com love me as I got all linked up again on their site. Not only that, my picture made it onto bikerumor...

 So lately Proto has been whining about us not getting out enough together (you know how a spouse can get), so I set up a fun overnightfor t...

If you have been riding long enough you'll notice a pattern.  As people have kids or get a new job things change; bellies may grow, they...
