Crouching Squirrel Hidden Monkey: September 2007

Crouching Squirrel Hidden Monkey. Oregon trails 'n tales. Tuesday, September 25, 2007. Lycra vs. Lava. And the winner is. Lava! All injuries appear to be superficial - the knee is most problematic, but pain is minimal as is the bleeding, and it seems biomechanically sound. So all I've got here is a sh! Load of pain - so I can keep riding - it's just mind over matter, right? Manage to fight through it and actually have a good time, though I'm more tentative on the technical sections which is not good....

Crouching Squirrel Hidden Monkey: February 2008
http://crouchingsquirrelhiddenmonkey.blogspot.com/2008_02_01_archive.html
Crouching Squirrel Hidden Monkey. Oregon trails 'n tales. Saturday, February 02, 2008. Stop with the snowing already - I've had enough! Yes that was me back in early December, doing the snow dance at the SnowPark when we had a 1" base. I'm sorry, I won't wish for so much snow next time, I just got carried away. If this keeps up, the bike trails won't melt out until July! Please stop it - I'm starting to feel the stirrings of Snow Madness. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile.

Crouching Squirrel Hidden Monkey: June 2007
http://crouchingsquirrelhiddenmonkey.blogspot.com/2007_06_01_archive.html
Crouching Squirrel Hidden Monkey. Oregon trails 'n tales. Friday, June 29, 2007. It's the last race of the 6-race series. Best 4 results count, and I was sitting precariously in third place. Now there's at least half-a-dozen racers in my Expert 40 class that are a level beyond me in fitness, and usually finish 10-15 minutes faster in a 2.5 hour race. And they all showed up today! Thursday, June 21, 2007. I do the foggy, rocky twisting downhill run for the third and final time - and have a nice little cra...

Crouching Squirrel Hidden Monkey: Chasing the Ghost
http://crouchingsquirrelhiddenmonkey.blogspot.com/2008/07/chasing-ghost.html
Crouching Squirrel Hidden Monkey. Oregon trails 'n tales. Thursday, July 31, 2008. A summer evening's solo ride, and in the shadows of the twisty descent, a flicker of light did catch my eye. Somewhere on the trail ahead, amongst the silent stalking pines, a flash of white then quickly gone. A trick of the light, a peripheral aberration? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Crouching Squirrel Hidden Monkey: Oakridge Boys
http://crouchingsquirrelhiddenmonkey.blogspot.com/2008/07/oakridge.html
Crouching Squirrel Hidden Monkey. Oregon trails 'n tales. Monday, July 28, 2008. We slogged up the Alpine access road for 15 miles and 6000 vertical feet, while shuttlers droned past us, probably taking as much time to arrange their vehicles as it did for us to climb. For most of the ascent a dense fog was draped upon us, with only occasional bursts of heatlamp sunshine. Now, drenched with sweat and clouds, it was time for the glorious descent. First came slow rolling grades and fields of bunchgrass.

Crouching Squirrel Hidden Monkey: January 2008

Crouching Squirrel Hidden Monkey. Oregon trails 'n tales. Thursday, January 17, 2008. Since I mentioned biking season was over last post, and it was time to talk about ski adventures, what do you know I end up going for my first bike ride today in months. So now I need to buy studded boots and maybe studded gloves too. Hell, a studded body suit would probably be best! Or I could just wait until Spring until I hit the trails again.

Crouching Squirrel Hidden Monkey: December 2008
http://crouchingsquirrelhiddenmonkey.blogspot.com/2008_12_01_archive.html
Crouching Squirrel Hidden Monkey. Oregon trails 'n tales. Sunday, December 07, 2008. Eso Blogo es Muerto. Not much going on here huh? I originally started this blog to talk about biking and racing and training and other outdoor adventures. But since I don't train or race seriously anymore, general adventure stuff can just go in my other blog. So as a parting shot, here's my conclusions and analyses from this year. Spent more time on the mountain bike too. But then came the races with lots of climbing, li...

Crouching Squirrel Hidden Monkey. Oregon trails 'n tales. Monday, September 29, 2008. We're talking today with Cajun Mountain Bike Man, who recently moved up here from the Southern Bayou tribal areas. So Cajun Man, I understand you've been doing quite a bit of biking around here, and yesterday you did the MRT (Mackenzie River Trail). That's quite a long trail.did you get an early start? How was the drive over there? Why, what caused that? Yes those porta-potties can be stinky. What happened this time?
