FGOB: Random Flats? Save Yourself the Headache and Get Some New Tires!
The facts up front here. I generally roll around on my bike weighing in at about 235 pounds, give or take a beer or three. I wanted to put that out there so you can tell if we are in the same category, or what! So here is the problem I ran into. Back in 2014 I bought...
FGOB – Yes, You Really do Need to Wear the Tight Bike Shorts
Some of my upcoming posts are going to be dedicated to reviewing various bike shorts and helping the bigger dudes try to find the right size... because the companies aren't necessarily all that helpful in that regard. But before I do that I just wanted to touch on one...

2015 Tour of Sufferlandria – Stage 8
I can't believe I survived to be typing this post. I did not watch any of the three videos in today's stage ahead of time. So I had no way to know that this stage of the tour was all about sprinting. The first video had sprint intervals and they were tough, then I...
3000 Miles and Counting…
I've gotta say, I'm definitely enjoying my indoor cycling trainer. I picked up the Kurt Kinetic Road Machine 2 about a month ago. I'm still not extremely excited about indoor training, but I'm happy to have my season extended into the crappy weather. Cycling is one of...

Last night was a killer ride. The temperature was amazing and it just fel super nice out. I only had time to do 30 miles and still barely made it back before dark. I hate riding in the dark on the crappy Toledo roads. I'd love to keep riding in those exact conditions,...

I've been enjoying Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich on my Samsung Epic 4g thanks to CyanogenMod 9. Since I've installed, I've had one nagging issue. My phone would only rotate to landscape if I opened the keyboard. Recently I put a car mount in for my phone, and for...
Fixed Ratings, and a Few Other Issues
Well, that was irritating! I've been having js issues for nearly a month on the site. It caused a good deal of lost advertising revenue for me, and it also wouldn't let you guys rate any mixes on the site! No matter, that's all been fixed. The site is running well...
