I have been out in Texas all week for work, and am in a small town that doesn’t have a single bicycle facility to be found. It is pretty amazing when you go from a place that you would feel comfortable biking anywhere, to a place that …

Ultra-Endurance racing: training to go the distance
If you’ve read my bio, you know that my favorite cycling discipline is ultra-endurance mountain biking, which has gained a lot of popularity in recent years because of its fabled races and seemingly super-human athletes.  USA Cycling defines Ultra Endurance as an event lasting over 4 hours, which includes the Marathon format (which is limited to 47-62 miles), ultra marathon and timed events such as 6, 12, and 24 hour racing.  This series of articles…
