Join us in standing strong for our first responders by donating today.

On the 25th anniversary of 9/11, I've committed to raising funds as we ride 343 miles to honor the fallen, support the survivors, and stand with the first responders who still fight battles most of us never see, including cancer, trauma, and the toll of years spent serving others.

Please help me support this cause by making a donation through my page and don't forget to send this page to any friends you think might be interested in donating. I can't do this without you!

51st Ped Bridge to Walnut Creek

Sunday 17th May
muggy day…awesome crew…love bombing the hill on the trail…and 51st is nice rolling hills for training

Social Sunday

Sunday 17th May
Rode with my crew today. Starting to really dislike Strava. Cut me off at the ped bridge on Lamar. Easily got 40 miles in today. But it clocked me at 33 😠

Sweet ride though. Took 51st to Walnut Creek. Ran into another riding buddy. Told him about this LiveStrong Challenge. Hope he takes it up.

Then we stopped at Betos for a Tex Mex snack break. Rode to Montopolis. Wishbone Bridge. Zig Zagged through downtown. Crossed river to Barton Springs. Then back up Nueces to Rosedale. Back up to the Leads house near Burnet and 183.

Gusty. Humid. But the wind is like natures AC. Even hit some hills for training. Feeling good. Just hoping to get more in this week. Expecting lots of rain 😞

Paloma Lake w/ Hustler 29’

Friday 15th May
nice trail near my house…mix gravel and sidewalk…chill…not many people around

Paloma Lake / Wyoming Springs Route

Friday 15th May
Windy. Gusty. You know it’s bad when you have to peddle downhill. lol. But, I know I put in 30 miles. Strava cut out on me when I was on my way back. 😠

Went Paloma Lake to Old Settlers Park to Brushy Creek Regional to Wyoming Springs and back. Nice add on to the slow roll from last night. Wanted to stay close to home because of the wind.

Went to my buddys moto shop today. He’s over in Mencheca. Nice rolling hills there. Planning on getting a ride in down Southy soon.

Taking a break tomorrow. Got too much going on. But will take on the Sunday Social with my Cruisers crew. Planning on leaving from the Leads house. Easily get ten more miles in that way, instead of the meet up point.

UT Tower

Thursday 14th May
selfie during social ride slow roll with my kiddo…good times…great weather

Thursday Social

Thursday 14th May
Got some cards made. Should be coming in the mail next week. Small squares. One side has description of the ride and what it’s for. The other side will have the QR code in making donations.

Had social ride with the kiddo tonight. With my Cap Tex Cruiser single speed crew. Kiddo is just getting back into riding again. So, it was a slow roll. Went through UT campus and took some selfies by the tower. Very cool weather. Windy just enough to cool us off. Stopped at food truck park near dorms for a mid stop snack.

Planning on another ride tomorrow afternoon. From Round Rock through Pflugerville, then Walnut Creek Trail back through Wells Branch and Deep Woods by the HS. We’ll see. Depends on how I’m feeling.

Prep for the big ride!!!

Wednesday 13th May
My plan is to do two consecutive 30 mile day rides.  Take a rest for a couple days.  Then do three consecutive 30 day rides.  Take a rest.  So on and so on.  Until I can achieve 5 30 mile day rides.

It is my assumption this will be my biggest hurdle to jump.  I'm good with doing 30-50 mile rides.  Just haven't done them consecutively, yet.

This is my plan in building stamina for the big ride ahead of me in September.
