1/2 way through with vacation.

Its been a mellow few days here at the ranch. Technically, I’m off for this week to recharge and relax.
Alright, lets celebrate…

Its nice to have the time to unwind and hang out with my cat.

Maybe I”ll get a haircut?

Maybe go for a Mule Ride?

Perhaps I’ll work on my perfect Buddha for this life?

Actually, as you can guess, I”ll be doing some bikecycle things…

First and formost, I’ve got to ride every day so far this vacation….and that is 100% awesome. Its funny, no training for any events, just riding for pleasure. Its great – because in a lot of ways, work really does get in the way.

Also Dealercamp is in town – its a small trade show that arrives in Park City. Criticized by many for being a ghost-town of a show; I enjoy Dealer Camp. Its very intimate and really as laid back as you can get. Not quite laid back enough for me to bring my Team to (bring them to the cross race they said!), but hey, its their private function….and I’m the guest. I”ll have a full report tomorrow, because there are many cool things.
Yesterday was Pioneer Day here in Utah, and Ali celebrated….

He also raced in the cyclocross race held after the business day.

And well done to Cris Fox for bringing the Gilly suit and the dollar billz.
Team racer Tim was there….his Dharma Kit must be in the wash….

And of course, us….

We may have stayed too late and drank too much….

But then again, nobody made us leave or anything….
And big thanks to Kona Bicycles, who have invited me to their 2013 product Launch. Alright, Washington State, here I come.

On to other bike news.
Just in case you didn’t know, RAGBRAI is on, and its hot. Here is the weather report for opening night…

Reports from Ezekiel show that riding is best done at night after drinking all day to stay out of the heat.
The group in OR seem to be making their way down the coast nicely…

And speaking of the coast, let me leave you with this…because its time for a moto ride.
