The technicIAn: June 2010
http://iass157.blogspot.com/2010_06_01_archive.html
2010: Adding gears, keeping things 700c. Friday, June 25, 2010. I have been pretty flat since returning from vacation. After a wedding, the end of my semester (during which time I spent three decent weeks on the bike) I have been ultimately flat since my vacation. I don't even know where to start. Well I do, but I am lacking motivation. A garage full of bikes. A body ready (but questioningly able). Where do I start? A long road to travel any way I slice it. Sunday, June 6, 2010.

The technicIAn: August 2009
http://iass157.blogspot.com/2009_08_01_archive.html
2010: Adding gears, keeping things 700c. Wednesday, August 26, 2009. Seven Oaks Race Report. I had to settle for 4th on the day. After the flat I was just a little knocked down. I haven't ever had a "mechanical" in a race before so I was due. I've been really lucky. After I hit the tire with CO2 I had too much pressure and just couldn't get back in the groove. I did manage to keep the gap at 20 seconds though and that was good. Tuesday, August 18, 2009. Oh what October 5th will bring. So to all: Do your ...

The technicIAn: May 2010
http://iass157.blogspot.com/2010_05_01_archive.html
2010: Adding gears, keeping things 700c. Wednesday, May 5, 2010. Iola Bump and Jump Race Report. The beginning of the race is really open and all doubletrack. There are some wicked steep climbs which were going to take there toll later in the race. I kept the pedal down, but on the open sections just wasn't feeling it. I made it through lap one unscathed and had moved up a little ways. My legs out of no where came around! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Iowa City, IA, United States. View my complete profile.

The technicIAn: Neither.
http://iass157.blogspot.com/2010/09/neitherountry.html
2010: Adding gears, keeping things 700c. Monday, September 6, 2010. Well a lot has happened since the last post. The Wednesday night ride has become a staple, and then receded into the past. After leaving the country for the first time, I have a skewed and renewed vigor for random tidbits for life. While the "luxurious" amenities abounded, I was significantly disinterested. I met some sweet people, but could not imagine a more watered down experience. Was it not a fabulous honeymoon? I apologize as I str...

The technicIAn: January 2010
http://iass157.blogspot.com/2010_01_01_archive.html
2010: Adding gears, keeping things 700c. Friday, January 29, 2010. Well that's all I got. Tuesday, January 26, 2010. So I have been doing a fair bit of working out this winter outside of riding. The workouts call for warmups of strength stretches, squats, sit-ups, back raises, push ups and pull ups. The three rounds of 15 each of those are enough to introduce some muscle back into the system that was lost, but this is where things are getting started. Sunday, January 24, 2010.

The technicIAn: Ouachita Challenge Race Report
http://iass157.blogspot.com/2010/04/ouachita-challenge-race-report.html
2010: Adding gears, keeping things 700c. Tuesday, April 13, 2010. Ouachita Challenge Race Report. So race day came. Woke up around 6am and got showered and headed over to Oden to pick up the race packets. We officially found out that we were going to run the race the opposite direction. My goal for the race was to stay with the leaders as long as possible to see what would play out. All in all I still finished top 50 which was a good day on the mountain bike. I finished with Adam same as last year fo...

The technicIAn: October 2009
http://iass157.blogspot.com/2009_10_01_archive.html
2010: Adding gears, keeping things 700c. Wednesday, October 28, 2009. Let's just say I'm over it. I have also been lazy in tearing down the SSuperfly. It definitely needs some love in the bb/hub area. Yeah they are both King, but screw it, they are easy enough to overhaul and probably should be done once a year (especially after what I put it through.). Iam over. it. Tuesday, October 13, 2009. So screw the racing stuff. What am I going to do for a geared race bike? So the next question is which builder?
