Saturday was the Sterling Road Race. In New England this is one of the classic races that everyone really wants to win. It was no different for myself. My legs have felt great recently and I was looking forward to throwing down with the big boys this weekend. Tim Johnson, Jesse Anthony, and Will Dugan [...]
This weekend the team headed up to the Tour of the Dragons in VT for the first big race weekend of the year. The whole early season the team has been working on getting all the riders really synced up and racing well together. This weekend was the first big test to see how we [...]
This past weekend the team got ready to hit the local roads around the Quabbin Reservoir. This race is always a good one and usually allows for the strong guys to lay the hurt on the field and make a break away happen on the hilly roads. I am always psyched for this race, because [...]
(if anyone knows where I can find pictures from the race, that would be awesome! for now, you can read my description of my first mountain bike race with rad pics of racing cross) Well, I have done a couple collegiate races a couple years ago but I don’t count those because I was ill [...]

Since I have had a break of a week with no racing, I decided it would be really fun to travel a bit while I have the opportunity. Craig Richey and I were trying to figure out where we would got for 4 days and we settled on London. The trip was made pretty easy [...]
The Christmas period here in Belgium is the most hectic and jam packed racing period during the year. With a race every other day on the hardest courses I have ever raced on! It all seems like such a blur to me now. I think back and i did so many races in a short [...]
I came to Belgium knowing that I was really bad at riding mud and knowing that I would get a fair dose of it in the Motherland of Cross. This weekend was not a letdown with the first really muddy double weekend this year. The amount of mud that I came across this weekend was [...]

Awesome little sweet shop where I indulged in some unknown candies. Great little coffee shop. Had some amazing espressos while in this town. Drinking wine at lunch is a normal occurrence here [...]
